Remember these? Right now ReNew @CGLHull could use yours if it's just lying around in your cupboard. We had a few lying around and were able to drop them off. Although old, they work and could be a vital lifeline to someone in the community.

Always hard at it, but even more so now to support #homeless people into accommodation. Thank you @Emmaus_Hull for the brilliant work you do, especially your outreach team. Get in touch with the team if you're concerned about a Rough Sleeper today!

#MondayMotivation arrived when receiving these beautiful flowers from a former client supported by their #mentor into accommodation, now happy and settled in their new home. A lovely surprise that's definitely brightened up our day.

If you've got any spare gloves or socks, why not donate them to @Emmaus_Hull. They're running low and these are critical when weather is at it's worst. Pop into any Emmaus store to drop them off. These go directly to the #homeless in #Hull.
#StormDennis #ThursdayThoughts
13 Feb 2020
We have been loading our orange bags to help the homeless keep warm during storm Dennis.
If anyone has any spare gloves or socks to donate it would be much appreciated as we are running low.
All donations go directly to the homeless and these can be donated at any Emmaus store.

Everything has its season, HumberHelp too. This project has now ended, after almost 10 years. Hopefully it had a positive impact & influence, helped people to understand more about #homelessness, directed people to help & support. Thanks for all your support too. J @photomoments

#TuesdayMotivation - Not everyone likes giving and receiving hugs so adapt the narrative and hug a tree!! With similar health benefits, you can't go wrong!!

Did you know that spending time in nature has significant health benefits? Research show that exposure to green spaces reduces the risk of type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, premature death, and high blood pressure.
Conclusion: go hug a tree! 😄 #NationalHugDay
