We were delighted to have been awarded funding of £371,745 from the National Lottery Community Fund for a three year programme ‘Home from Home’ 2023 to 2026.

To see the impact of the programme over the three years please see our Impact Report, written by external learning partner Rachel Vernelle.

The programme had people taking the lead as a driving force, and we succeeded in our aim to ‘build a community which supports each other, where people can express themselves through creative activities, share their stories and learn more about themselves and each other.’
