Helping Hands 20th Birthday News

As part of our ongoing celebrations, we sent a birthday present to members of the community as a thank you for all their help and support over the years.

On Friday 24th September a team of volunteers wrapped and packed over 200 china mugs with our logo on them and carefully placed them in bags along with biscuits, a tea bag,  glittery napkins, Helping Hands shiny coloured information leaflets, and our thank you note.

On Sunday 26th September helped by our wonderful team of drivers the bags were delivered to our volunteers, clients and members of the Sussex Jewish community.

We also delivered over 80 cartons of homemade vegetable soup to our clients that day so it was a busy and worthwhile day for Helping Hands.

Another 50 mugs were posted to our volunteers and supporters who do not live locally, or who were away on that day.

We will also be delivering mugs over the next few months to the wider community to different agencies, organisations, and welfare groups that we interact with.

If you did not receive a mug and would like one please let us know and we will try to get one to you, we have a limited number left!
