Every Tuesday, One Community appears on the @unity101fm community corner at 3pm.
We would like to help young people to cope better in lockdown.
Next week our show (presented by Naomi Stock,) is about supporting young people’s mental well being, education & a new buddy system.
Tune in live at 3 or listen later on podcast.

Great job growing food and getting it to people who need it.
Local Ghurka Nepalese association has had a bumper crop they are sharing with the aid of One Community. Donating via Eastleigh’s food bank (called Eastleigh Basics Bank) these fantastic volunteers have given and continue to give an amazing amount of time, care and commitment. Plus a much needed selection of fresh, locally grown food.
Read more in this insightful article by the daily echo.
One Community’s transport and logistics team were involved this year and we continue in delivering food to the vulnerable during lockdown & tier 4 into 2021. If you know someone who is vulnerable & needs our help, please get in touch. Tel 023 8090 2400 or email reception@1community.org.uk

About ten years ago Giving Tuesday started in the USA. It was a response to the materialism expressed in Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Over the last seven years, Giving Tuesday has been in the U.K., again a response to the materialistic thrust of the time between October and the 24th of December.
This year, the idea is for charities like One Community to join up with thousands of others and encourage people to give for a specific purpose. The hash tag to look for is #giveback2020
It gives the public a great opportunity to give back to our amazing charity that has given so much over the year of lockdowns, covid-19 and many heroes. (Like SUPER STEVE!)
Our target is to raise £5000 for our supported, accessible transport buses.
We have been running a service throughout 2020 in a COVID safe way. This has included shopping for the isolated, taking people out for essential appointments and getting day service on the go again. Our volunteers and staff have been second to none.
Once services start to re-open fully in 2021 to older, vulnerable and disabled people we want to be running services that meet their needs in the Eastleigh area.
To raise the £5000 we need your help.
Visit our DONATE PAGE for easy ways to give
SHARE our posts, tweets, images and articles (including this one!) on your own pages and with the charitable, voluntary or non profit organisations who have the same heart for community that we do.
Want to help the young people of Eastleigh?
We are looking for some volunteers to help at the Energy Youth Centre on Leigh Road.
If you want to make new friends, learn some new skills and enjoy a challenge- Energy would LOVE to hear from YOU!
For further information please email volunteer@1community.org.uk
Or call 023 8090 2400 during office hours.

If you missed listening to our live radio show on Tuesday at 3, do not worry!
Listen again to our podcast
It is our awesome regular presenter Naomi talking to newcomer Stuart from our Transport department.

Great News! We have completed fitting of screens to 3 of the minibuses meaning we have increased capacity in the fleet.
Screens make the vehicles much more covid secure as they provide a physical barrier between the drivers and passengers compartments so making them compliant with social distancing and making travel safer for the users and the drivers.
Good Eh?
Ring 023 8090 2450 to book a dial-a-ride covid secure journey.
