Community Grants
We’ve been giving £1,000 away to charity each and every month since November of last year. The past two months we’ve donated to two very worthy causes. August’s grant went to Home Start Craven and September’s to Skipton Baptist Church.
Home-Start Craven are a not-for-profit charity serving North Craven, South Craven and Skipton. We support families, with at least one child under the age of five, who may be facing a crisis, a challenge or simply just need a helping hand. We provide dedicated volunteer support, once a week for two hours. Our support is confidential and free. Broadly, we support families in one or more of the following ways: emotional support; practical support (such as behavioural management); reduce isolation; budgeting; healthy lifestyles.
Skipton Baptist Church approached us as they have just submitted plans to the council to expand their church into the building next door. They need to raise a whopping £285,000 to transform the neighbouring property into a place for the community to come together.
We hope our donations will go some way to helping those in need. If you have any worthy causes in mind we’d love to hear from you. You can reach us at [email protected].
