Today was a really special day for Let's Go! MCR. ❤️
After several weeks without our own minibus, we were finally able to get back out on a trip thanks to the incredible kindness of our friends at The Sunnywood Project, who have very generously loaned us the use of their minibus for today and for some trips throughout August!! We are so grateful for their kindness 🙏
Our first stop today was the Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service centre in Bury, where the young people learnt so much about staying safe.
They explored a mock control room, walked through a purpose-built house and street, and learnt how to spot hazards and deal with potential dangers at home. It was such an engaging session and I think they all took away skills that will stay with them for life!
A huge thank you to the wonderful staff for making us feel so welcome 😊
We finished the day doing what we love most... spending time together at the park, climbing trees, laughing and simply enjoying the freedom of being outdoors with friends 🧡
Today reminded us just how important these trips are and how much they've been missed.
Although we're incredibly thankful to have the use of a minibus for a few weeks, we're still working hard to raise funds for a permanent replacement so we can continue supporting the children and young people who rely on us.
To everyone who has donated, shared our campaign, sponsored Rosie, or supported us in any way... thank you!! Your kindness and generosity are helping us get one step closer to having our own minibus again, and we couldn't do it without you. ❤️
