🌟 Celebrating Our Amazing Volunteers 🌟

During Volunteers' Week, we want to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you to all of our incredible volunteers.

Your time, dedication, kindness, and enthusiasm make a real difference every single day. Whether you're supporting events, helping people in need, sharing your skills, or simply lending a helping hand, your contribution helps strengthen our community and creates a positive impact that reaches far beyond what you may realise.

We are truly grateful for everything you do and proud to have you as part of our team.

Thank you for your commitment, compassion, and generosity. We couldn't do it without you. 💙

If you've been inspired by our volunteers and would like to make a difference in your community, we'd love to hear from you. Get in touch to find out more about volunteering opportunities and how you can get involved.

Not the most glamorous job, but an absolutely vital one a huge thank you to Seal UPVC for donating a door and window for the rear of the building! 🙌

Over the past few months, we’ve been working hard to tackle some serious damp issues at the rear elevation.

Step by step, we’ve made the whole area watertight — and now the back of the building is ready to be fully clad.

All of this is laying the foundation for something really exciting: a state-of-the-art sensory room, coming soon to Y Stryd. 💙

Every donation, every skilled pair of hands, every behind-the-scenes contribution brings us one step closer.

Hoarding can feel isolating.

�Like nobody understands why letting go feels so difficult.

But you don’t have to face it on your own.

Our Hoarding Support Group offers a safe, understanding and confidential space to talk openly, share experiences, and take small positive steps forward at your own pace.

No judgement. No pressure. Just support from people who understand.

We’re proud to endorse the principles of – The UK’s National Standards Body (NSB)’s new standard BS 30480 Su***de and the workplace – Intervention, prevention and support for people affected by su***de.

BS 30480 provides a practical framework to help workplaces identify su***de risk, take action, and put appropriate support in place for those affected. By becoming an early adopter, we are helping to lead the way in creating workplaces that are more aware, more prepared, and more proactive in addressing su***de.

Some great advice from our Counselling Services team...

Tuesday Thoughts...

Most of us wait until we're on 1% before we pause.. before we rest.. before we ask for support. But just like a phone, running on empty affects how we function - we slow down, we miss things, we feel overwhelmed.

Don't wait until you're on 1%. You can access one of our counselling services today by emailing - [email protected]
