craft Bags
We noticed that a food parcel delivery for lots of kids was often one of the weeks highlights, young people have been some of the most impacted by the pandemic, they shouldn't have to whether the financial impact while they are still growing up, we want to give them the opportunity to celebrate their creativity, express themselves and have fun despite restrictions and increasing poverty.
Craft bags are being distributed as part of our Yes project, providing youth essential support as we move through the pandemic. Through the YES project we are distributing extras alongside food parcels to families with kids, ensuring that while no child goes hungry at the same time every child has something to bring them joy, entertainment and opportunity.

Over the coming months, National Lottery Community Fund have funded our YES project which will allow for an additional 260 craft bags to be distributed, this will help address some of the growing need.
Initially bags are being distributed across Bodmin but as we secure the money to produce more, we will work with other grassroots community projects across Cornwall allowing them to distribute them across the communities they know, helping ensure they reach those most in need. Each week the contents of the bags is varied with special seasonal bags planned for Halloween and Christmas. This allows us to provide consistent support as well as one off support allowing us to be flexible to the needs of each child and their family circumstances. |
