Just sending you another update on another donation we have been able to make recently…

ADIRA provide black people of all ages, who have experienced mental health problems, with a safe, friendly and culturally sensitive meeting space. It is here where anyone needing support is offered information and advice along with social and leisure activities. This is ADIRA’s second donation from The Sheffield 1000 and has come at just the right time as they have recently moved into the bus interchange in the city centre. This new location will enable them to offer much more to their service users so that, as well as toiletries, household cleaning products, skin and haircare products, they will now able to offer a social cafe, a clothing and shoe boutique, a toy station and a computer suite, as well as a CAB First Point of Access Screen. Our donation will enable them to replenish their stocks of toiletries, shoes, clothing and toys.

The picture shows some of ADIRA’s service users graduating from their first mental health friendly Hair and Beauty training in their salon on the Wicker. The event was attended by their family and friends, their support workers and the scrolls were handing to them by the Lord Lieutenant.

Thank you again for all your support – keep your eyes peeled for where your kind donations will go next…

Best wishes,

The Sheffield 1000 Team
