We had a wonderful time attending Leyland Festival on Saturday and were amazed by the scale of the event and the fantastic atmosphere throughout the day.

The festival was a real celebration of community spirit, bringing together local people, organisations and businesses in a way that truly showcased the best of Leyland. A huge well done to all the organisers whose hard work clearly made the day such a success.

We were proud to be based in the Park Hall Hotel and Spa Lancashire, a member of Radisson Individuals -sponsored tent and loved meeting so many people throughout the day. Our mascot, Keyleigh the Bunny, even made a special appearance and was a big hit with visitors!

Thank you to everyone involved in making the event so memorable. We’re already looking forward to next year.

What a night! 🎉

On Saturday, we attended the Spring North Awards at the One Voice Blackburn Awards Dinner at The Exchange in Blackburn, and we’re thrilled (and still a bit amazed!) to have been chosen as winners of both the Impact Award and the Not-for-Profit Award.

For over 30 years, Key Unlocking Futures has been supporting people across Lancashire, helping those affected by domestic abuse, homelessness, and mental health challenges, while building stronger communities. Our mission has always been to help people build better lives, and to see the person, not the problem.

These awards belong to our incredible teams who give their all every day, the people we support, and those who may be thinking about reaching out for help for the first time. As we continue to grow, it means so much to know our work is making a difference.

Huge congratulations to all the other finalists, and a massive thank you to Spring North and their judges for this recognition 💜

As the World Cup kicks off, we’re taking the opportunity to remind you that domestic abuse is never acceptable.

While major sporting events bring communities together, they can also be a difficult time for some people.
If home doesn’t feel safe, support is available. If you’re worried about a friend, family member of neighbour, help is available for them too.

Have you been putting it off?
A lot of people do.

You notice something… but tell yourself it’s probably nothing.
You think about getting checked… but life gets in the way.

It’s easy to wait — but your health is too important to ignore.
If something doesn’t feel right, trust yourself and get it checked.

📞 Your GP is there to help
✅ Don’t put it off

It could make all the difference.

“It’s probably nothing…”

That’s what a lot of people think.

But if you notice blood in your poo, it’s your body’s way of telling you something isn’t right.
It’s always better to check.
It’s always better to know.

This Volunteers’ Week, we’re celebrating the incredible people who give their time, energy and compassion to support others.

Our volunteers are at the heart of what we do — building meaningful relationships, offering kindness, and helping us to truly see the person, not the problem.

Their impact goes far beyond what you can see. Every conversation, every moment of support helps someone feel heard, valued and empowered.

Thank you to each and every one of our amazing volunteers — you are helping to build better lives every day.

If the weight is dropping and you’re not trying… would you notice?

It’s easy to brush it off.
“To be honest, I’ve been stressed.”
“I’ve just been busy lately.”

But unexplained weight loss can be your body’s way of telling you something important.
