On Friday 18th August, two of our staff (Shami and Susannah) chose to spend their Red Kite volunteering day helping Wycombe Wanderers Sports and Education Trust and social enterprise Empower to Cook to deliver the 'Fit and Fed' project, which aims to help families who struggle to feed their children during the holidays. The project works with local schools and families to help them learn how to cook healthy cheap meals, and also give them the opportunity to take part in physical activities to try and keep everyone... 'Fit and Fed'!
The project runs for three weeks and is based at Castlefield Community Centre, right in the middle of one of our estates, and really helps our customers and their children. Our Red Kite volunteers said how much they enjoyed their time working with the local community and felt they made a real difference to the enjoyment of the families who came along.
