We are thrilled to announce that by working alongside service users from across our project we have developed an exciting new project called Hull’s Hidden Heroes which has been made possible with funding from The National Lottery Heritage Fund. We’ve been awarded a grant of £165,340 to support local people to explore the rich history and heritage of our area and thanks to National Lottery Players residents will spend the next 2 years learning more about some of the people and places that have positively impacted on and shaped our community. As part of this project residents will be supported to create a map and website content that will document the vibrant history and heritage of Hull and will include the videos, art works and photographs that local people produce as a result of their research. If you’re interested in finding out more about the project and how you can get involved, please contact Kirsty, Rachael or Jo at [email protected] or call us on 01482 606077. #NationalLottery #HeritageFund

For the last two weeks we've been speaking to the young people about International Women's Day ; discussing women we find inspiring and their admirable qualities, writing letters to their future selves with their hopes and goals for the year, and discussing why we have an International Women's Day, the history of it, and why we celebrate it.  A job very well done by our campaigners! We cleaned up the surrounding area of HRN and cemi park yesterday, even in the rainy weather We're so chuffed with the work they're putting in, they've already planned to have another go during the next half term. We'd like to give a huge thank you to Huttons & Co - Ship Chandlers Ltd for their donation yesterday of milk and butter The parents group were delighted by it and said it'll be perfect for the kids' cereal (they go through it like crazy) while they're off this week! We've been able to provide over 40 tickets to our community members to go see the fantastic Oliver Twist at Hull Truck Theatre over the Christmas period - and with free ice cream during the interval!
A huge thank you to our director and volunteer, David, for helping out with the Grotto as always! The kids look forward to visiting Santa and this year was no different. A huge thank you to our volunteer, Ashleigh, for helping us set it all up and our young volunteers helping us on the day. It was a great way to wrap up the Christmas celebrations before we closed until New Year.  The Christmas parties have been booming over the final week before we close and we're all exhausted from the amount of fun we've had. We can't wait to see you all in the New Year! Our final food parcels of the year have been put together and delivered to our local families and service users with the hope of easing the way during the time we're off for Christmas and New Year. It was lovely to hear how much it eased our service users' minds to have an extra helping hand over such a difficult and expensive period of the year.      A huge thank you to Motus Vehicle Solutions, Parts4TailLifts, Humberside Tail Lifts, RLP Distribution & Turner Price for their donations to go towards our Christmas Hampers! A big thank you to Language is Everything for their donation to go towards our Christmas Food Parcels!  Thank you so much Swanland book club & De La Pole Lodge 1605 for the gift donations!  We're so grateful to MLP for their donation of goods to give out at Christmas!  A big thank you to Age UK for their shoebox donations! A huge thank you to Sandra & Lloyd from Salvation Army for their donation of fabulous toys!  We're so grateful for the extra help from Turner Price, Motus Vehicle Solutions, Parts4Tail Lifts Humberside Tail Lifts and RLP Distribution for their donations towards our Christmas Hampers we gave out to our local families. It was a great help and relief to our service users!
