We’d like to say a big thank you to local company Morley Glass for an extremely generous gift towards supporting families in Leeds. Morley Glass have come up with a fantastic sustainable solution to the waste glass from old windows. Rather than it sitting in landfill forever, they have invested in a machine called CRUSH which, as the name suggests crushes the glass and enables it to be recycled to make new window panes (check out https://www.morleyglass.co.uk/glass-recycling-leeds/). What’s more, they decided to give the extra money this makes to local initiatives and charities. It’s both a brilliant green initiative and amazingly generous. Thank you Morley Glass for a crushingly kind gift!
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.
We are immensely grateful to everyone who has contributed to our slow cooker appeal.
What a great term it has been at FFL! We have been busy delivering our various groups and programmes around Leeds. Our families have loved coming along to the groups and have benefitted hugely from the activities and support from the FFL team.
