One of our projects is an Essential Hub at Watford general Hospital, where we provide non- perishable food and household items for NHS staff who struggle with livings. For this purpose, we try to reach our local businesses who willing collaborate with us and provide mentioned food and other essential item donations which we distribute to NHS people.

Through the power of storytelling, we inspire individuals to take action in response to climate change, making every day decisions to live more sustainably. We help people build individual emotional connections with their immediate natural environment, transforming the climate crisis from something unfathomable in to something they can see, feel, and ultimately, affect.

Helping Our Community Thrive and Grow! Our team at The Spring Charity offer community services for local families to gain opportunities to improve their well-being and outcomes in life. We work to benefit vulnerable families with children aged 0-5 years in the local community and wider Northampton town area. Our charity is based in Castle Ward, which is in the heart of Northampton (Spring Boroughs, Semilong, St James, The Mounts). Some of our families experience financial hardship, and social, health or economic issues. Parents can self-refer, or be signposted by health services, other professionals, schools, or charities in the area. We hold bi-weekly Stay and Play parent and child drop-in sessions which are open to all families with preschool-aged children. These sessions help us to make contact and build relationships, so we can best meet our family’s needs. We are currently working on setting up a number of projects focussing on well-being and healthy living, such as cookery groups for families and offering a warm space for local residents. As you can imagine our provision and the services we offer to our community are solely funded by charitable donations and project-specific funding which we have placed a bid for. We would be grateful for financial support from local residents and businesses and we are always keen to accept donations of good quality children's clothing and equipment e.g. car seats, buggies etc, maternity clothing and toys. We can also consider offering, subject to the appropriate safeguarding checks, opportunities for volunteers to gain some experience prior to moving into paid employment
