Just leaving this here if anyone wants to check it out...We are housing not only families fleeing violence, but also families who simply find themselves homeless in hotels for weeks on end. If you are thinking 'that doesn't sound so bad' - remain curious a bit longer and listen to our families...

We don't give out clothes in plastic bags - ever it is a RULE.
Plastic bag of clothes don't offer the dignity and respect that our mums and minis deserve.
We want to give gifts with love, not tatty handouts.
So - we need a constant supply of cloth tote bags.
Got any? Send them our way!🛍️

Imagine you were Lincoln City FC, then you managed to sign Ronaldo. What a game-changer!
This is how we felt as our new Director of Operations started this week.

Proud of our steering committee mums, who take on the responsibility of making sure we stick to our mission, vision and values through monthly meetings. These new T-shirts mean all mums can find them and feed back with questions, complaints, suggestions. And they also look SENSATIONAL! Winning!

Our families wishing to observe the holy month of #Ramadan in home office hotels face a month with no hot food. Hotels won't adjust meal times.
Instead they get this 'snack box' full of inappropriate food.
@london.gov.uk @mehdirhasan.bsky.social @tomcopley.bsky.social it's not OK, is it?

Do we know any painters and decorators?
Can anyone help us make our loo a bit less well, overwhelmingly RED?
We don't think it would take much, a few pots of white paint and a couple of afternoons?
Let us know if you want to volunteer and do something amazing.

'Does TB cause HIV?'
'Can you catch TB by spitting?'
'Is TB hereditary'
'Is TB curable?'
Our hearts sing when mums feel free to ask taboo questions without fear.
Thank you to Newham's Public Health team for enabling accessible and equitable conversation cutting through shame to the good stuff.

It is not OK that so many mums and dads are unable to treat their children and families in a way that reflects traditions, family and beliefs.
The emotional and physical damage is immense.
Please lets ask for change. Sign our petition that no child be housed without a kitchen.
