Kids Inspire

View Original

Two years in our Great Baddow home have been filled with ‘therapy, opportunity, love and care’

Our services are for children, young people and their families, but the Kids Inspire community is wide-open to many more – the love and care goes on and on…

Starting with the DIY SOS two years ago when over 50 volunteers gifted their time to ready Hargrave House over JUST one weekend, we have continued to be heart-warmed by the community ever since, and here’s a look back at just a few things that you’ve done for us and ways that we’ve been there for you…

There’s been fundraising fun:

Sky dives

Cycle ride from Essex to Amsterdam

Inspiring fundraisers

Volunteer celebrations:

You also came out and showed us again how supportive you all are by rallying around after a break-in at Hargrave House recently. We received an abundance of generosity to help us to fix the damage, as well as offers of gifted time and donations. Thanks especially goes to ‘Total Safe’ who gifted us new Fire Extinguishers saving us a huge expense, money saved will continue to be invested into the mental health of children, young people and families..    

We honestly couldn’t do all that goes on at Hargrave House without your ongoing support, so thanks to you all again that have been there for us time and time again 😊

COMING UP: If you’d like to join us online we’ll be hosting a community conversation asking the question ‘COVID-19: How do we heal?’, everyone is welcome and we hope to see you there to hear your thoughts about healing the community. Tuesday 1 June 9.30am,  You can book here.

Lets continue the circle of heart-warming generosity as we move into our third year at Great Baddow, look forward to seeing or hearing from you soon.
