🌿 Volunteer Wellbeing Away Day 🌿

Last week, our wonderful volunteers enjoyed a well-deserved wellbeing away day at Yorkshire Sculpture Park.

It was a fantastic opportunity to step away from our daily routines, spend time in nature, explore the inspiring sculptures, and connect with one another in a relaxed setting. The day was filled with laughter, conversation, reflection, and plenty of fresh air.

A huge thank you to all our volunteers for their dedication, commitment, and hard work.

Join us on Friday 26th June as BEACON staff, volunteers, supporters, and community members take part in a sponsored walk around Bradford City Centre to raise awareness and vital funds for refugees and people seeking asylum.

The walk will celebrate Bradford’s strong community spirit while supporting BEACON’s work providing practical support, guidance, and a welcoming space for those rebuilding their lives in the UK.

Every step taken and every donation made will help promote inclusion, dignity, and hope for people seeking safety and a fresh start.

If you would like to support the campaign, sponsorship forms can be requested by emailing [email protected].

Wednesday last week, McKenzie Friends volunteers came together at Global Café to share tea, cake, memories, and stories from the past 20 years.

It was a warm and heartfelt afternoon celebrating friendship, commitment, and the incredible support volunteers have given to others navigating the justice system.

Thank you to everyone who joined us.
