28th August - 1st September 2023

This week our Engagement Officers have been out and about in the Holme Slack area, chatting to tenants about our upcoming Annual General Meeting on 7th September as well as other ways to get involved.

We held the final session of our School Uniform Store on Thursday, taking the grand total of people we’ve helped to 101 families, providing 215 kids with 805 items of uniform ahead of the new school term 👔

Friday was the first time we’ve worked with new partners, Rebuild with Hope charity, who held a pop-up sale of high-street goods at heavily discounted prices at The Hub at St Bernards 🛒 The sale was really well attended, with lots of our tenants there to grab a bargain or two. Rebuild with Hope plough all profits back into the charity and are also donating a portion to help support CGA tenants over Winter. We’re looking forward to more joint projects in the future.

The team also called in at the last Cook, Eat, Repeat session this afternoon. These family cookery workshops have been really popular, helping tenants make budget friendly meals for everyone to enjoy 👨🏽‍🍳🥕
