Hammersley Homes' 2024 goal: This year we aim to host more fundraising events and concentrate our funding on working towards building our first Hammersley Home. What's yours?
We celebrate our volunteers here at Hammersley Homes at every opportunity, but the importance of volunteers across the globe came into focus for Louise during her frightful experience of the earthquakes that took place in Morocco in September.
It’s almost the end of our Big Give Christmas Challenge Campaign! There’s still time to double your donation here. We spoke to our wonderful Outreach Manager, Crystal Bloomfield, about our outreach programme.
On day five of our Big Give Christmas Challenge campaign, where every donation is doubled for this week only, we spoke to one our wonderful volunteers and outreach clients, Jamie, about the services we offer.
On day three of our Big Give campaign, we spoke to our founder, Louise Hallett, about why she formed Hammersley Homes
As part of our Big Give Campaign this week, where all donations are doubled at no cost to you through the Christmas Challenge, we spoke to a doctor about how people end up in hospital when they reach crisis point with the symptoms of their mental illness.
We are proud to be participating in The Big Give Christmas Challenge again this year. From 29 November - 6 December, every donation is MATCHED, so every donation will be DOUBLED, which will make a huge difference for our charity!
On 9th October, volunteer Pedro Feitor ran a half marathon to raise valuable funds for Hammersley Homes. Bryan Woods recently spoke to Pedro about his amazing achievement.
Pedro is one of our fabulous Outreach Volunteers, who has really made a difference to the lives of some of our vulnerable clients he’s been visiting.
