Today, Monsignor Paul Grogan, Episcopal Vicar for Education, blessed our new Head Office. 💙

Kieron Flood, Director of Education, also joined us to welcome our team to Hinsley Hall. With the collaboration of the Vicariate for Education and other Diocese of Leeds teams, we have been welcomed with open arms as we strengthen our partnership under one roof.

It was a lovely blessing for our new home, with a reminder of the importance of the people who make up Catholic Care and the hands that carry out our work of serving others.

We’re excited for this new chapter and all that it will bring. 💙✨

Celebrating Our People ⭐️🩵

💬A message from Rachel Wilkinson, Head of Services:

‘We are delighted to share and celebrate two important internal promotions within Catholic Care, recognising the talent, commitment and leadership potential that exists across our charity.

🧡Zoe Mortimer - Registered Manager, Living for Tomorrow

‘We are delighted to announce that Zoe, previously a Deputy Manager within Living for Tomorrow, has been successfully appointed as a Registered Manager.

During her time as Deputy Manager, Zoe has demonstrated commitment, growing confidence and a real capacity to develop further as a leader. She brings operational knowledge, strong relationships with colleagues and the people we support, and a clear understanding of what good quality, person centered support should look and feel like.

Becoming a registered manager is an important next step, bringing with it greater responsibility, accountability and opportunity. We are excited to see Zoe build on the strengths she already has, develop her own leadership identity and continue to grow and flourish in her new role.’

💜Jessica Price - Interim Senior Manager, Foundations for Tomorrow & Steps for Tomorrow

‘We are also delighted to share that Jess has been appointed as Interim Senior Manager, providing leadership across both Foundations for Tomorrow and Steps for Tomorrow.

Jess brings a wealth of experience from her leadership of Foundations for Tomorrow, alongside a strong understanding of our values, our people and, most importantly, the children and families we support.

This new role provides an exciting opportunity for Jess to bring her skills and experience across a wider area of the charity, strengthening connections between our services and supporting the continued development of our leadership arrangements.

We are really pleased to see Jess take this next step and look forward to supporting her as she continues to develop within the role!’

🌱Growing Our Own

‘These appointments are important not only for Zoe and Jess personally, but for Catholic Care as a whole.

We want to be an organisation where people can see opportunities to learn, develop, progress and lead. Developing our own people strengthens our services, retains valuable knowledge and experience within the charity and helps ensure that our future leaders understand the values and culture that sit at the heart of what we do.

Both Zoe and Jess demonstrate that leadership development can take different paths, and we are proud to be able to recognise their individual strengths and give them opportunists to take the next steps in their journeys.

Please join us in congratulating Zoe and Jess on their new roles and wishing them every success.’

- Rachel Wilkinson, Head of Services

A little glimpse into the Catholic Care archives 📸🗃️

As we pack up our Head Office at 11 North Grange Road ahead of our move to Hinsley Hall, we’ve been going through 163 years worth of photographs, documents and memories.

We came across these portraits showing some of the children supported by Catholic Care almost 80 years ago. 💙

Who knows what else we’ll find in the archives… 👀 Stay tuned!

This Thursday, Thrive Club is back in session! 💪📝🍊

Led by our Nutritional Advisor and Chair Exercise Coach, Ingrid, this 5-week course is all about learning how small, practical lifestyle changes can make a big difference to our health and wellbeing. 🫀🌱

From understanding the gut microbiome and macronutrients to learning about the traffic light method, each session gives our students the knowledge and confidence to make healthier choices.

And it’s not just about learning! Students also get the chance to put their knowledge into practice, with healthy cooking and some goodies to help them get started at home. 🍎🥕

Here’s a look back at some of the highlights from our last session, as well as an excerpt from the Thrive Club booklet. 💚

Interested? Get in touch!

WHY DO BABY BANKS MATTER? 💚

Every baby deserves to have the essentials they need to be warm, clean, comfortable and cared for.

But for some families, getting everything a baby needs can be incredibly difficult particularly when circumstances change unexpectedly.

That’s where baby banks like Gianna Baby Bank can help.

We provide essential baby items to families who need a little extra support, helping to make sure babies have access to things such as clothing and other everyday essentials.

💚 It’s not just about the items.

It’s about dignity.
It’s about community.
It’s about making sure families know they’re not alone.

Thank you to every donor, volunteer, supporter and community partner who helps make our work possible.

Together, we can make a little go a long way. 👶💚
