During the upcoming lockdown, if you're in #Whitby or the surrounding area we can offer you support with a befriending service, shopping or prescription collection and info for those self isolating (1/2)

[Whitby DAG @whitbydag]

We know that the last eight months has been difficult for disabled people. Younger disabled people have had difficulty, especially those who have had to shield, or have struggled to get out of the house. With this in mind we are starting a virtual Friendship Group.

[Two Ridings Community Foundation @TwoRidingsCF]

Throughout lockdown, @whitbydag delivered an Activity Pack for all our members and volunteers so that they had “Summat to Do” whilst stuck at home. Thanks to grant money they were able to provide a bag of goodies for everyone. One of their members wrote a poem about it:

One of @whitbydag Creative Arts Groups in Hinderwell did some lovely rock art which the local shop put on sale, with the proceeds going to Whitby DAG. Take a look at what they made: #TwoRidingsProjectStories

A good addition alongside our exisiting Beach Wheelchair fleet. Keep donating.

[WHISH @WHISHWhitby]

Thank you to everyone who has helped us to exceed our initial target.
We're hoping to reach a new £1500 Stretch target, to enable us to buy the best chair possible. #StrongerCommunities #avivacommunityfunduk https://t.co/14Dr6lF6Su

[WHISH @WHISHWhitby]

@whitbydag will provide storage and maintenance which means the beach wheelchair will be available to hire for children visiting Whitby. As well as being free of charge to our members.
