A big "thank you" to #Blackburn with Darwen @CommunityCVS for their recent grant which will enable our group to develop - it will help with marketing and go towards the cost of setting up a website; more soon. @blackburndarwen @WeAreTheFSA

Recently our Group Co-ordinator, Claire, was invited to speak at @CommunityCVS's network meeting. Whilst preparing for the event, Claire looked back at how many cakes have been baked since our group started in February 2013.

🙌We are delighted to share that our Inclusion Football session has been nominated at the @CommunityCVS Awards, where we have been shortlisted for the Peace Award (group) category.
🤝The award recognises groups that contribute to social cohesion and help communities feel safer, more connected and supportive of mental and emotional wellbeing.
⚽The programme, initially aimed at asylum seekers and refugees, has now grown into a weekly session where we recently welcomed more than 50 attendees for the first time, and last year saw us host the Inclusion World Cup where more than 100 people took part.
🤲The awards will be held on Thursday 6th November at Ewood Park, good luck team!
