Door 84

York, UK

Door 84 has been a part of the community in the Groves, York for decades and we want to make sure it remains so. Originally named “York Boys Club” it was founded in the 1930s. In recent years under the name "Door 84" the charity has evolved into a trusted provider of high quality services in our community. Whilst we regularly receive referrals of people who need support from the local authority, our funding is entirely dependent on donations and fundraising activities, including grants from charitable foundations. Our work is never done and therefore our fundraising is never done either! We will be running a series of campaigns through Crowdfunder to enable us to continue funding these important services for the community in York. Through FOOD, FRIENDSHIP and ACTIVITIES we support all sectors of the community across the year and offer a welcoming space to build relationships, get support in accessing services and have the chance to relax in a friendly, safe space for those who need it. FOOD is provided free through our food bank, at low cost through the Community Cafe, and is always on offer at youth sessions. Food has the ability to bring people together and show people care and we see this every day in our building. FRIENDSHIPS are central to all our services and they develop through our youth clubs, between participants at our SPARKS sessions for adults with additional support needs, and amongst the community who attend the Community Cafe and Foodbank. ACTIVITIES occur in the various youth groups for young people ages 8-17 years, in our SPARKS sessions for adults with additional support needs, and are many and varied at our open to all Community Days which occur 2 or 3 times a year.
