Residents came together at Brunswick Church on Wednesday 4 November for another successful Brunswick Bonanza, delivered by S4B in partnership with Brunswick Church and a range of local organisations.
The event offered residents access to advice, support and opportunities designed to help them through the winter months and beyond. Colleagues and partner organisations were on hand throughout the day to answer questions, share information and help connect people with the services they need.
Visitors were able to access support on a wide range of topics, including housing, cost of living assistance, home energy advice, health and wellbeing, money management and budgeting. Information was also available on jobs, training, volunteering opportunities and local activities, including arts and crafts sessions.
As the morning session came to a close, guests enjoyed a fantastic Tai Chi demonstration from members of the local Wai Yin Centre before sitting down to a delicious lunch provided by the Brunswick Church Café. Even Lucy the dog joined in the fun, popping along to see what goodies were on offer and enjoying plenty of fuss and strokes from residents and visitors alike.
A big thank you goes to Brunswick Church, Wood Street Mission, 422 Community Hub, Arawak Walton Housing Association, Wai Yin, Community Health Champions and resident Rob Burgess for supporting the event and showcasing the services, activities and opportunities available across the Brunswick community.
Brunswick Bonanza continues to be a valuable way of bringing people together, sharing information and helping residents access support while strengthening community connections.
