Hemingford Hub is fundraising..

Dear Hemingfords,

This donate page was originally to raise funds for an iPad, but we're now hopeful this may be coming from a grant we've just applied for....


However, the fact remains that our Hemingford Hub is rapidly running out of funds.


Back in August 2019 we raised just under £2,400 to get us started with training, DBS checks, leaflets, website, posters and lots of running around before lockdown.


Now we need to replenish the coffers so we can continue to support our 110+ active volunteers and all those residents who have to stay locked down.


We’re really thankful for all the volunteers who run errands like shopping, collection of medicines, dog-walking and phone calling. We couldn’t do all this without you.


Please could you make a contribution, no matter how small, to help pay for things such as:


  • Hand sanitiser gel and disposable gloves for our volunteers

  • To help pay for ID badges and lanyards for our volunteers

  • To pay for additional insurance

  • Print costs of leaflets and posters

  • A weekly nutritious meal for our isolated, elderly ‘at risk’ residents

  • Some new communication kit to keep our elderly residents in touch with their families.

Thank you very much in advance for any support you can give.

ABOUT THE HUB

What has become the HemingfordHub was first proposed in 2017 as a test case for how lonely or isolated people in the village could be supported by the community care sector and NHS. The Hub was recognised as a community group and received funding in November 2019. Just as the team was preparing to launch the Hub, Covid-19 happened..
