We are delighted that Cleaswell Hill School is currently participating in Fundraise and Recycle’s ‘School Connect Project’.
Fundraise and Recycle specialise in the recycling of unwanted clothing, bags, paired shoes and toys for collection and redistribution. Items can be donated at any time via the clothing bank situated at the pedestrian entrance to the Cleaswell Hill School main site. Please ensure that all donations are bagged.
Cleaswell Hill Foundation (registered charity number 1000697) will receive a cheque determined by the weight of the items donated during the ‘School Connect Project’. The more bags that we collect, the more money that we will raise for exciting, inclusive resources and experiences for the children at our school!
Thank you for your support!

This World Environment Day, we’re celebrating the small but meaningful steps being taken across our services to care for the environment and encourage others to join us.

Across St Cuthbert’s Care, our outdoor spaces from small urban gardens to the woodland and grounds at the Alan Shearer Centre offer the people we support places to enjoy, shape and care for nature.

At St Catherine’s nursing home, staff are re-purposing a raised bed into a low-level rockery, helping residents take part in gardening while improving views across the garden, especially for those less able to spend time outdoors.

At our children’s homes, young people are also getting involved, with one young man even building a bird box from scratch to support local wildlife.

We’re also hugely grateful to our gardening volunteers, particularly at the Alan Shearer Centre, whose work helps care for the natural environment and its wild visitors, including foxes and deer.
This work has also supported our nationally recognised environmental accreditation.

Gill Ennis, Director of Compliance, said:

“Achieving independent recognition in the first year of our environmental plan reflects the shared commitment across our services to care for our environment and the spaces we all enjoy.”

World Environment Day reminds us that small, everyday actions can grow into lasting, positive change 🌍

Not all superheroes wear capes…

Some serve tea ☕
Some lead activities ⚽
Some simply sit and listen 👂
Some help in our gardens 🌻

But all of them make a difference.

Every week The Hub at Parkhead, Diane brings energy, fun and a real sense of community through her dance classes, helping to promote a healthy lifestyle in a way that feels accessible and enjoyable for everyone.

But her impact doesn’t stop there…

Through her Fit for Charity classes, Diane has raised an amazing £20,000 to support the Hub and our wider disability services.

“The Hub is such a special place. I love being part of it — seeing the smiles every Tuesday makes it all worthwhile.” Diane, Volunteer

During Volunteer Week, we’re so proud to celebrate volunteers like Diane who go above and beyond to make a difference.
