All your wonderful gifts are ready to go and 60 of them are off to Community First’s Day Centre.
Pam has been given her gift by one of our elves already!
Thank you so much for your kind giving. Our shop volunteers have been wrapping them ready to give to people who otherwise may not have anything to unwrap.
If you have a few things you have ready to donate, it isn’t too late to put them unwrapped into the huge empty present inside the Fareham Shopping Centre.
We are right across the two town sites today.
Come and find us for tombola fun at the Eastleigh Museum.
Come and see us on West Street, Fareham for splat the rat and pick the snowman’s nose!
We are also keen to talk with anyone looking into volunteering and have lots of enthusiastic volunteers out you can chat to.
Keep your eyes on our social media today to find updates and people having fun.
If you work for a business in the wider Eastleigh or Fareham areas, come to us to sort out your corporate volunteering, part of your CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility.)
You might be part of a small businesses club or local chamber of commerce. Even a sports club or musical band could come and volunteer for a couple of sessions together.
There is a broad range of activities you can choose from and this film introduces the Bursledon Brickworks Museum. You will discover how they have benefitted from corporate volunteers, hear from a volunteer and discover exciting plans ahead.

OK. We know. It is lockdown again and frankly many are struggling. It is grey and cold and easy to feel rather flat.
We want to make things better for you here at One Community.
So, if you are running a voluntary organisation or charity you and your awesome people might like to raise their sights and learn some new skills.
The level of training we are offering on ZOOM is superb and if you want to give yourselves an uplift by learning something new or getting more practice on something you know a bit about already- check out the courses listed.
Our training manager Hayley Hamlett would love to take your bookings. Email her hhamlett@1community.org.uk or call 01329 239 934
The two areas we work in, Eastleigh and Fareham are in need of volunteers.
They need people to get and deliver shopping.
Volunteer phone companion callers.
Cheery callers to check on how people are
You will need to have a DBS check and two references to do this.
When you volunteer, yes absolutely you are providing an invaluable service and support.
It looks great on your CV. Our volunteers tell us they get a huge boost in their own well-being having been part of giving back to the community.
If you would like to help in either Eastleigh or Fareham areas email volunteer@1community.org.uk
You can call the Eastleigh office on 023 8090 2400 or Fareham 07702 802 555
One Community has launches the Fareham Community Lottery.
