Thanks to the incredible generosity of some of our supporters, we’ve been busy delivering 75 Christmas hampers to families in East and West Leeds in the last few days. Each bag contains loads of festive goodies and family favourites. The dad of one family who told us that the cupboards were almost bare at home, said, “This has made Christmas for us. It’s brilliant.” Big thankyous go to Waitrose for their fantastic donation of loads of lovely fruit and Tesco’s for their amazing support in giving us access to their warehouse, delivering in one go (we had our own van!) and for contributing £100 of extra groceries.

Our work to overcome child poverty was the top story throughout the day on BBC Look North on 20th December.
We’re thrilled to welcome the latest additions to our team, Tabitha, Papaya and Josiah, our Graduate Interns, and Helen, the latest member of our cookery team. We can’t wait for them to showcase their experience, expertise and enthusiasm! Let’s get to know them a little better…
“Before this group, I felt like a nobody. Now I feel like somebody.” This was the answer 8-year-old Evie gave when asked about the difference our Activity-Based Mentoring Group had made for her. This sums up for us why we do what we do. Everyone deserves to know that they matter, whatever their circumstances and challenges.
