What happens when people are given the opportunity to contribute, create and be part of something positive?

This beautiful mosaic bench.

Designed and created by participants from HACRO, the bench was unveiled at Crosby Close as part of their 30th anniversary celebrations. The project gave participants the chance to develop new skills, work together and leave a lasting legacy for residents and visitors to enjoy.

A huge thank you to MacIntyre in Hertfordshire, Montet Designs and Emmaus St Alban's for supporting the project, and congratulations to all of the participants involved. You should be incredibly proud of what you've achieved.

We're recruiting a Driver & Activities Coordinator to join our TurnAround team. This rewarding role involves helping participants access and engage with activities across Hertfordshire, from sport and wellbeing sessions to volunteering, education, and community projects.

Transport is often the biggest barrier to participation, so you'll play a vital role in getting people to sessions, supporting engagement, and helping them build confidence, positive routines and brighter futures. If you enjoy working with people, are a confident driver and want to make a genuine difference, we'd love to hear from you.

The final bit of painting has now been completed at Better, Gosling Sports Park. As we use the facilities each week for our tennis activity, it’s great to be able to give something back to the community. A huge thanks to Herts Tennis for supporting HACRO.

Well done to our participants for all their hard work, effort, and teamwork in getting the job finished.

Today HACRO CEO Claire Byrne joined a community session and caught up with one of our participants who has recently been supported by our Employment Advisor, Laura, through our Connect to Work programme.

We are really pleased to say she has now secured herself a new job and will be starting soon 👏

A huge well done to her, and also to Laura who is still fairly new in post herself. Great to already be seeing such positive outcomes from the project.

Our participants were back at Recover today, getting started on upcycling a pair of chest of drawers. They spent the day sanding, filling, and priming the drawers, ready for painting next week.

Another really enjoyable session filled with creativity, learning new skills, and working together. Huge thanks to the Recover Team for all their support. We’re already looking forward to seeing the finished result!

We’re delighted to share that a brand-new Mud Kitchen has now been delivered and installed at HMP Eastwood Park for children visiting their mums.

This wonderful project was made possible through a fantastic collaboration with RoughStuff Oak, whose craftsmanship has created a beautiful, durable space for imaginative outdoor play, and with generous funding from Tilbury Douglas.

The Mud Kitchen will provide a creative, hands-on play opportunity for children during visits, supporting meaningful family time, encouraging interaction, and helping to create positive shared experiences.

We’re incredibly proud of what partnership working can achieve and grateful to everyone involved in bringing this to life.
