These hampers make all the difference to our families, and help make sure everyone can enjoy the festive period.
Hundreds of families across the borough are receiving festive hampers to give them a bit extra this Christmas, funded by the council through Household Support Fund, and organised and delivered by fab volunteers like the Sunnyside Supplies team. That’s a #BetterBorough.

Great to spend time with fellow current and former councillors. As always, lots to learn from one another and a great giggle over a quiz! Wonderful to see this beautiful collaborative art piece symbolising a heartfelt welcome to people displaced by conflict, persecution or climate change.
