Live Well with Arts and Crafts We’re absolutely thrilled to announce that the National Lottery Community Fund have awarded us £17,848 for our Live Well with Arts & Crafts project. This funding is truly wonderful for our community, allowing us to continue to run our arts, crafts and writing sessions. Stay tuned for updates on the additional sessions that this will help make possible.
Prehabilitation & Healthy Habits
The good news kept coming when we discovered that we will be receiving two grants from Northern Cancer Alliance to fund our Prehabilitation project. We are delighted to receive £9,370 to fund weekly exercise classes and monthly prehab workshops, and a further £1,000 to host two Live Well with Healthy Habits Masterclasses in the Live Well Hub.
