B&Q Doncaster

We are a Peer Support Group established in 2010 to promote good mental health. We work across the borough of Doncaster and have a membership bas of over 700 Peer Supporters. Each person pledges to both give and receive support. We operate from The Wellness Centre which is open 6 days a week providing activities, learning opportunities and friendships. We also run The Safe Space which is 7 days a week crisis support. We are big on people having the opportunity to be a real part of their community and build meaningful connections. We have a food bank, mental health crisis support, many creative groups, fitness, music and so much more. Our philosophy is that everyone has skills and gifts to offer in their community and we are simply people helping people.

Flourish Enterprises is a CIC based in Balby, Doncaster. We work out of a stunning listed building that provides inviting office space, conference and function hire, community events and volunteering opportunities, historic walled garden & shop and cafés all surrounded by lots of beautiful green spaces. As a social enterprise we focus on providing care and support services throughout our local communities. We exist exclusively to promote social mobility, wellbeing, opportunities and work with our partners to deliver a positive and lasting social impact. We provide vocational and volunteering opportunities to people with mental health needs, learning disabilities, neurological conditions and to those that have experienced other forms of set-back and who need support to get back into education, employment or meaningful activity. Our range of activity includes Woodfield 24, our specialist end-of-life care service providing community-based palliative care support to patients and their families – ensuring that their remaining time can be spent together. As a not-for-profit organisation we ensure that every penny of surplus generated from our services is reinvested back into community led activity. We are fully owned by the RDaSH NHS Trust and together we share the same site at Woodfield Park. We run a programme of activities and events throughout the year, with a focus on wellbeing, creativity, inclusion and community. We aim to keep all of these activities and events either free of charge or as low cost as possible.

We are North Lindsey College, Doncaster College, Doncaster University Centre, and University Campus of North Lincolnshire Our Foundation students at North Lindsey College would like to have a garden where they can grow fruit and vegetables that they can then use in cooking/life skills lessons however, they need a fenced off space to make sure their garden stays safe. Before lockdown in 2020 they had a garden, but due to no one being able to tend to it during lockdown, everything died. We are looking for some donations of wood to build a fence around the garden to separate it from other students.
