A BIG thank you to Moody Logistics! 💙☕🍰

We want to say a huge thank you to everyone at Moody Logistics for raising a fantastic £166 in support of Core Foundations to mark World Homeless Day!

It's wonderful to see local businesses coming together to raise both funds and awareness for people experiencing homelessness.

World Homeless Day is an important reminder that everyone deserves a safe place to call home. At Core Foundations, we believe tackling homelessness is about more than just providing a roof over someone's head. It's about offering friendship, practical support and hope for a brighter future.

Every pound raised helps us continue our work providing safe, welcoming homes and empowering people to rebuild their confidence and move towards independent living.

We're incredibly grateful to the whole team at Moody Logistics for their kindness, generosity and support in raising awareness of such an important cause.

Thank you for helping us provide homes, empower lives and restore hope! 💙

A coffee, a cake and a chance to make a difference! ☕🍰💙

We want to say a huge thank you to everyone at B&B Attachments Ltd for coming together to host a charity coffee morning and cake sale in support of Core Foundations.

Events like this are about so much more than fundraising. They help start conversations, raise awareness and remind us that everyone deserves a safe place to call home.

At Core Foundations, we believe tackling homelessness means providing more than just a roof over someone's head. Through safe accommodation, friendship and dedicated support, we help people rebuild their confidence, develop life skills and work towards independent living.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone at B&B Attachments who baked, donated and got involved. Your kindness and generosity really do make a difference!

Together, we can provide homes, empower lives and restore hope. 💙
