We're very proud of our volunteers & the great work they do - like Julie & Lucy who run the Chatty Crafters womens support group at the Hub. We can't overstate how much of a difference they make in the lives of the ladies they support.

This is what our small grants can do! We often chat about making a difference or lasting change. By supporting & investing in services like BOOST we can help to make those small changes.

This is what listening to our community achieves: many of you asked for a womens support group where you would be safe to discuss personal struggles.
So our Volunteers sprung into action to create & deliver the first womens support group in Brinnington.

It's Flashback Friday and we're looking back at last year and the largest gathering of volunteers that Brinnington has ever seen. The Mayors of Manchester & Stockport were amazed by all the amazing work our many talented volunteers!
