We're helping to raise funds for Emmanuel House our local support centre for homeless people and rough sleepers.
Life NewsOn Thursday November 28th Lace Market businesses will gather in the beautiful surroundings of St Mary's Church in the Lace Market where Christmas trees will be ready to decorate with lights, sparkle and a bit of corporate branding. Festive refreshments will be provided and relaxed networking will be enjoyed. All in a very good cause.
Any time of year is a terrible time of year to be without a home of your own or to be sleeping on the streets. How much worse it must be in the howling rain and freezing frost of winter.
However anyone comes to be living on the street, and whatever may keep them there, they deserve our respect and the organisations working hard to help them need our support.
Our well-known near neighbour on Goose Gate, Emmanuel House, is a go-to place for many of Nottingham's most in-need citizens. They provide much-needed services on a very limited budget.
You probably already make charitable contributions, but could you make just one more by joining the Creative Quarter Company and Spenbeck in supporting St Mary's annual Christmas Tree Festival by sponsoring either a 4ft tree for £40, or a 5ft tree for £50?
If you would like to be involved, and want to support Emmanuel House at this critical time of year, please contact becky.valentine@spenbeck.co.uk
