The Community Development Team's Update #BAGSOFHOPE THE GRAND TOTAL 2021/2022

1 Feb 2022

Businesses, local authorities and partners stepped up to support our Bags Of Hope campaign, with everyone pulling together to make a difference for our communities across our city and county. We asked for support, and the response was outstanding. Even though this project took place through very challenging times, it really did prove how when we all work together to make a difference what a significant impact we can have.

This simple yet effective initiative has been a real boost to so many people who were having to deal with a range of issues, and being able to give #BagsOfHope was heartfelt and turned despair into hope. We cannot thank everyone who was involved in the campaign enough, your passion, commitment kindness were phenomenal.
