Passionate about Hardie Park

At Hardie Park, we are always trying to help our local community in Stanford-le-Hope and beyond, here are just some of the ways…

Making a great park for local people
Clubs and groups, including support groups for vulnerable people
Recycling projects (Bikes, Food and Packaging)
Teaching kids things (Tech Club)
Community Events and Activity Days in the School Holidays
Men’s Shed and Gardening (reducing Social Isolation)
Breastfeeding Support…the list goes on…and it’s a lot of work.

Lately, the work (and costs) have started to mount up (One example is our electric bill has gone up by 42%!), so to be honest with you all, we’re struggling, both financially and in terms of pressure and stress. We are not supported by the Council and we’re OK with that. We try to keep the prices down as much as possible, but now we have to charge VAT (we haven’t added that onto prices).

We’ve had a couple of staff who haven’t been 100% well either so that’s added some more pressure and our wonderful volunteers always fill in the gaps as and when they can, so we wouldn’t even exist without them.

So here is our plea, if you love us, please support us.

We think we’ve found a great way to receive and give back at the same time – The Essex Lottery. For as little as £1 per week you can support us with a 50% donation and you also have the chance of winning prizes up to £25,000

Money isn’t the answer to every problem, but our need at the moment is to build some capacity, tackle some of the challenges the work is creating and get ourselves in a good position for a positive future. If you can help us achieve that, then we would be truly grateful.

Please visit the www.essexlottery.co.uk and click buy tickets and choose Friends of Hardie Park as the Charity to support.

THANK YOU. …
