Community projects
From toddler’s groups, to over 55’s our groups directly cater for all ages. Our life and money skills courses help people become more resilient. And other initiatives like Love Does and Secret Angels bless those who’ve endured adversity. We want to do so much more, but we need your help and support to increase our impact.
A community hub
The Mill is a community hub for everyone. Dance classes, community support groups, schools and other voluntary organisations call The Mill home. And our stunning co-working, conferencing and event spaces are ideal for businesses. But we want to increase our capacity to do so much more by creating new spaces. We need funding, skills, materials and people to help make it all happen.
Community partnerships
Through our community partnerships we are meeting the needs of disadvantaged groups. Our Community Grocery and Community Locker partnerships provide lifelines for families who are struggling to make ends meet. We need more volunteers, new partners, funding, and skills to increase our impact.
“Whatever you choose to do, leave tracks. That means don’t do it just for yourself. You will want to leave the world a little better for your having lived.”
