We are delighted to announce that Morrisons Foundation have awarded us £9,920 towards equipment and furniture for our new wellbeing cafe which is due to open in 2024. Many thanks.
If anyone would like to help by donating towards our cafe fund, or by offering to help (electricians, joiners, plasterers, plumbers, etc.) please get in touch.
In October 2023, our charity won the “Patron’s Award” category (Excellent people doing excellent things and making a difference every day) at the British Quality Foundation’s UK Excellence Awards 2023 in London. HRH Princess Anne is the Patron.
Anu Kalia, EMEA Strategy & Transformation Director commented: “Excellence matters. You make it better.”
We are delighted to welcome Ann Shorts to our Board of Trustees. Ann has worked with North Ayrshire Council, Trading Standards plus the Crime Prevention Panel as Chairperson for the Three Towns. She has organised Neighbourhood Watch and various programs such as ‘Vamoose to Vandalism’, ‘Clued-up Kids’ and the ‘Big World’, as well as the CCTV mobile unit with Police Scotland and Community Safety.
Ann has also been actively involved in fundraising over the years and we hope she will bring these and other skills to the forefront with her new involvement with our charity.
For more information on Ann, please see her bio page on our website.
And if YOU think you could help our charity by joining our Board, please get in touch.
We are delighted to learn that we came top out of the 3 projects that had been selected for voting by customers in Saltcoats Tesco and Kilwinning Tesco Express stores. Many thanks to all our supporters who voted for us – and a huge “Thank you” to Tesco for awarding us £1,500 towards our wellbeing café project.
