Harpenden Trust Summer 2024 Newsletter

WE ARE DELIGHTED to attach our Summer 2024 Newsletter. The newsletter highlights many of the Trust’s activities in the past few months, and much of our ongoing work in the local community.

This edition particularly focusses on the partnership work of the Trust, amplifying the work of both national and local organisations across our local Harpenden community, highlights the new Trust minibus and the ongoing success of the Well Bean Cafe, and details the outcome of another successful Christmas Appeal.

You can also learn about the values of the Harpenden Trust, which guide our thinking and our actions and define what is important, beautiful and worthwhile in the work of the Trust.

As before, we also have a full guide to what’s on in the Community Halls, as well as updates on the work of the Care Fund and how the appeal donations are used to help the people of Harpenden, the many projects supported by the Community Fund, and how the Wellbeing team is working with partners to offer support to Harpenden residents.

The newsletter again highlights some of the many benefits the work of the Harpenden Trust brings to the Harpenden community, and the essential role of all our volunteers in all we do.

I hope you enjoy reading it.

Please do share as widely as you can - with friends, family and neighbours. It all helps us raise the awareness of the Harpenden Trust and our work in the Harpenden community - particularly as this edition coincides with the Christmas Appeal going out to homes in Harpenden. It can also be viewed on our website and via our social media.

We have also printed some copies which we will distribute in Harpenden from next week. We always have copies in the Community Halls and the Well Bean Café, and we encourage you and your friends to drop by and pick one up.
