Id like to say a really big thank you to Maureen who works hard all year round working within communities in Leeds. In particular the work she does with those who struggle both before and after the Christmas period. She works tirelessly to make sure that as many people as possible receive something at Christmas whether this be a Christmas hamper, food and clothes donations, winter warmers for the elderly and toys for children all so that families and elderly who struggle don't go without. Community lunches are also something Maureen and the team she works with pull together which are especially important over the winter period which is a time where many are often socially isolated. These lunches provide time for those vulnerable groups to be brought together in a warm, festive environment to enjoy a meal together and the opportunity to participate in activities. The work Maureen does is invaluable and I'm sure those who know her would agree. Thank you Maureen!
