WANTED Cardmakers

by


It would be great if we could include a small card, just to say hello, in all the grocery bags we deliver to vulnerable people, to those living and working in care homes and to others who are having to self-isolate.

Could we ask you to ask anyone aged 2 to 100 years to produce a card and One Community will act as postman? 

Cards can be dropped off at 75 Leigh Road (there is a letter box if we are closed). We will ensure they go out with shopping deliveries.

Cards can be drawn or created using photographs, we only ask that there are no identifying personal details – so please avoid people in any photographs, or house numbers etc.

If you wish to sign the card, please only give your first name as we will NOT pass on personal contacts.

We want to brighten people’s days.

Thank You.

Tea with a Twist

by

Tea with Twist

One Community is working in partnership to set up a new project in Hedge End. Launching in February, Tea with a Twist will be an opportunity for local people to access information about local services, whilst meeting friends and having a cup of tea.
Come and volunteer on a Tuesday morning, meet some new people, and make a real difference in helping others to find the support that they need.
Volunteers will be on a rota, so you will not be needed every Tuesday morning. The shift will be from 9.45am-12pm. Volunteers will set up, serve tea and coffee, put out board games and be ready to chat. One Community will provide information sheets about local services and will provide training for volunteers so that you are equipped to signpost visitors to local services.
Telephone: 023 8090 2400
Email: volunteer@1community.org.uk

Happy New Year

by

We wish all our; customers, staff, volunteers and the communities of Eastleigh and Fareham we serve, a very happy new year!

Looking back over 2019, we have done so much! Looking back to Shop Mobility collecting their service award from the mayor of Eastleigh, fast forward to moving to our temporary premises at 75 Leigh Road.

We have all worked hard to improve the lot of people in Fareham and Eastleigh through our community project support, volunteering, Eastleigh museum’s and Fareham’s shop outreach and Young Carers groups. Our transport appeal for funding for a new bus is almost at the point of being able to get one on the road and the day activity services are a fun and welcoming place to be.

One Community is changing and in 2020 and we are looking forward to sharing a swan centre shop with local charity Fledge in the spring. We have several new training opportunities too.

Wishing all of you a very happy new year!

From all of us at One Community.
