We’re delivering resource packs to Knowsley families to celebrate World Book Day
We have delivered boxes with reading material and educational resources to 250 families in Knowsley to help support them through homeschooling and to celebrate World Book Day on the 4th March. The boxes have been organised by our Social Impact team and will encourage children to develop their reading skills, as well as helping parents with ideas for activities.
Scouse has gone global
It’s Global Scouse Day on Sunday 28th February. This is a day for all scousers across the world to unite and celebrate our city. Our residents are also joining in, we didn’t want our sheltered housing residents to miss out on this wonderful day, so we got in touch with them and invited them to get involved with their own scouse cook-a-long. We’re delighted that a few of our residents have taken us up on the offer and we’ll be delivering ingredients and instructions for them to be able to make their own scouse on Sunday.
Celebrating LGBT+ History Month
This February 2021 marks the annual month-long celebration of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT+) history. We want to support a very exciting, informative and celebratory month, to educate out any prejudice and celebrate the LGBT+ community. This year’s participation in LGBT+ History Month follows Knowsley Council’s launch of the No More campaign. No More addresses global issues of inequality and discrimination, using its power as a local authority to make positive change in Knowsley for its residents.
We’ve sent tokens of love to over 700 residents during Lockdown Valentine’s Day
We've tried to help residents in our sheltered schemes feel the love this lockdown Valentine’s Day by sending gifts and a special message to all 700 customers. Recognising that the past 11 months have been a difficult time due to coronavirus restrictions – with many residents staying indoors for the majority of the time - we have this year ensured that they will each receive a box of chocolates and Valentine’s Day card on February 14th.
