🧡 A big THANK YOU to Oak Tree School for these brilliant donations! 🙏🏻🫶🏻

We were also really pleased to be invited into school to lead two Harvest Festival assemblies. The children were so engaged and shared lots of thoughtful ideas about helping others. It was lovely to spend time with them!

Thank you to all the pupils, families and staff for your kindness and for thinking of our local community. We’re very grateful! ☺️🧡

It was lovely to welcome the team from Dentaid The Dental Charity back to New Beginnings this week! 🙏🏻🪥🦷

The team travelled from all corners of the south of England to provide much-needed dental care for our guests, with nine people seen in total – which was fantastic!

We were also delighted to see Jill Harding, Dentaid’s Head of Fundraising and Communications, who has been such a great support to us. It was lovely to meet Mark Allen and Joe Lovett too, who helped organise and take part in Dentistry’s Big Community Challenge – walking 100km from London to Brighton in the May heatwave! Their efforts raised an amazing amount for Dentaid, helping make visits like today possible.

Thank you all for your kindness, time and enthusiasm. Being able to offer this service makes such a difference to our guests, and we really appreciate your support. We hope to see you again soon! 🥰🧡

🧡 It was so lovely to welcome the Vidett team back last Friday! 🧡

After running a Halloween Café with us last year and enjoying it so much, they came back to do it all again – and our guests were so pleased to see them. 🥰

The team arrived with hot dogs, pizza, cakes and everything needed for hot drinks, making it a really special session for everyone who came along. 🌭🍕☕🍰

It was lovely to see our guests enjoying the extra treat and spending time chatting with the volunteers too.

Thank you to everyone at Vidett for giving your time, energy and kindness. We loved having you back and hope to see you again soon! 🧡

A big THANK YOU to Downe House 🧡

We were delighted to receive these boxes filled with lovely toiletry bags, thoughtfully packed by the Downe House girls as part of their Make a Difference Day. 🥰

The girls spent the day supporting and engaging with their local community through a range of activities, while also welcoming 300 primary school children for a fun-filled day of workshops and activities.

It’s wonderful to see young people getting involved and making a difference. These toiletry bags will be put to great use by the people we support at New Beginnings.

Thank you to everyone involved for thinking of us and for your kindness! ☺️🧡
