We fund initiatives that endeavor to support our local communities. Through providing safe and stable accommodation, strengthening wellbeing, inclusion and opportunity, and improving financial literacy, we aim to create brighter futures across our region.
We granted funding to support Barnardo’s to build 5 Gap Homes to provide safe, secure housing for young people leaving the care system. Having affordable and suitable accommodation can make a huge difference and help young people make a positive start to their adult life.
The Youth Café has seen over 85 individual young people becoming regular users of the café since September 2025. Our grant funding supports the café to run from Tuesdays to Thursdays between 3:30pm and 6pm during term time.
