Volunteers to the rescue!

It was all hands-on deck on 22nd July when volunteers from the public, private & voluntary sectors worked together to help a single parent at risk of homelessness move house.

Local lettings agent NGalloway helped the household, who had no personal support network or resources, find another home but they still needed assistance in moving furniture and belongings. Nottingham City Council made a plea to its Homelessness Stakeholder Forum and the offers came flooding in.

On the day it was NCC’s Community Protection Team and local charity Hope Nottingham, with the letting agent Diane Bialek from NGalloway on hand, who carried out the move but special thanks must be extended to Muslim Hands, Emmanuel House and the many other individuals who offered assistance but were ultimately not needed.
