🌟 Jesmond update for January 🌟

From 10-31 January, The Canopy will be pausing all Canopy delivered activities at Jesmond Neighbourhood Centre.

This is a planned operational reset so we can review, plan, and come back stronger and better with activities set up for success in the year ahead 💛✅

✅ What this means
• All Canopy programs and volunteer run activities will be on pause for January
• Other groups and venue hirers using the space independently will continue as normal and should follow their usual venue access process with council

📣 We’ll share an update toward the end of January about what February looks like.

🍎 Looking for food or essential support?
You’re not alone. We’ve added some local support options in the chat on this post that you can contact directly. If you’re unsure where to start, please reach out and we’ll do our best to point you in the right direction.

🙏 Thanks for your understanding and support. We’re looking forward to what’s next 🌈✨
