This is incredibly sad and not the type of news I would want to see shared about a charity let alone one I used to be so proud to be a part of. My hope is that by sharing this we look at what went wrong, learn lessons and do better

We 💙 Hull

Spread love, not hate. There’s a lot of negativity out there right now, but that’s not the #Hull we know and love. That’s not our city. That’s not our community.

Let’s share and spread all the beautiful things that make Hull so special. Love always wins.

Listening to the awe inspiring Melanie Brown, “I do this for all the other women who are not seen”. Feeling the rawness of devastation shared by Yasmin (mother of Fawziyah Javed). Her description of being alive but not living was heartbreaking.
