Slow Cooker Appeal Update

We are immensely grateful to everyone who has contributed to our slow cooker appeal. It’s been a great success and really made a difference for families this winter. Not only have we given out a substantial amount of slow cookers, but we have given families bags of ingredients, slow cooker recipes and shown families how to get the best out of having their own slow cooker at home.

One family told us – ‘this sticky beef stew in the slow cooker is the best stew I’ve ever had!’

“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.
