Seems to be safety theme this week for the East Ren @ENABLEScotland LAC team! On Monday we were joined by the Community Police Team to talk about safe social media use. I also used this good weather to practice some safe independent travel on foot @EastRenCouncil
Well, we might not have won tonight @scvotweet#ScotCharityAwards but spending time with #Nova and #Sarah celebrating the impact of #MyOwnFrontDoor - and all that is wonderful about Scotland’s charity sector - is priceless 💜
Congratulations to all winners and nominees 🥳🎊👏
All the feels this morning - met a lovely family alongside the fab @Susanne_ENABLE
A joy to be able to offer immediate support, guidance & connections in the #community via our @EastRenCouncil#LAC team - no eligibility criteria, no barriers. ‘Our only agenda is your agenda’💜
One of my favourite things as we grow the impact of @ENABLEScotland charity is meeting new recruits to hear about their motivation for joining us & their passion for #humanrights. An inspiring chat with the fab @iona_enable in our @EastRenCouncil#LAC team this morning - welcome!
