2025 was a fantastic year for us, but as a charity all the support we receive helps make the care and support we give happen.
Here's to 2026!
Happy New Year!

Yesterday was an amazing day at our Christmas Party, including a visit from Santa and his elf, buffet food donated from Cranswick, visitors presenting a generous donation towards our Matthews Enterprise Day Centre, and our account manager at attending to present our very first Trustee Award sponsored by Unity Trust Bank.
Also not forgetting a special 40th birthday for one of our service users too.

Today marks the start of National Trustee Week, but every week should be a celebration of the work and support our Trustee's commit to throughout the year, with this week alone seeing our Trustees host staff meetings, deliver training, chair fundraising meetings, and attend our annual Bonfire Event.

However, this year, we are starting with a fond farewell to one of our longstanding Trustees, Chris. Chris has supported the Trust for 15 years and has now hung up his hat. His sharp business mind and critical thinking has challenged the Trust on numerous occasions, allowing us to focus on key issues, and will be much missed. Everyone at the Trust wishes Chris the best of luck in his next endeavours.
