Passionate about empowering girls aged 11-18 in inner #southleeds. Part of the charity @stlukes_cares.

This week has been incredibly hard for women everywhere, and understandably the tragic news of Sarah Everard is bringing up past trauma for many young women. Remember, if you're aged 11-25 we are here to talk if you need any support 💖

[The Shine Project @shine_leeds]

Each week we’re out and about delivering session packs! Great to have door step catch ups with the girls and keep them in the loop about zoom sessions. https://t.co/JfblbJqDng

Anyone free this week to come down and drive at the Slung Low food bank? 11-1 each day this week. South Leeds. We'll pay your petrol. Holidays really hitting our volunteer numbers and could do with a hand.

Totally bizarre time to have started my first week as CEO @stlukes_cares but getting there. Again and again struck by how many amazing organisations there are doing amazing things in the wonderful #southleeds and privileged to be part of the wider picture.

[St Luke's CARES @stlukes_cares]

Glad to be able to re-purpose our mighty furniture van for food collection and deliveries, supporting some of the most vulnerable in our community - if you see it out on the road give it a toot! Thank you to the wonderful @SlungLow for co-coordinating such a fantastic response.

[SlungLow @SlungLow]

This is the organisational structure of our Covid-19’s response.

@edleeds great idea Ed.

This week we will be visiting some of the groups we have funded! Our first visit is @leeds_wood, who repurpose recycled wood into new products and give beneficiaries the opportunity to learn woodwork skills! #GiveLoveLeeds
