Thanks to all the people who came today to our paper/textile craft session at the church. Through our effort the space of the former St Matthews church was magically transformed #HealthyHolidaysHull #HAF2025. Thanks as well to the Giroscope Cooking Project. @Healthyholshull

One month ago we found a big bag of baubles next to the bins on Wellsted St in front of 46, our little community space. We took them thinking that we’ll find good use for them at some point. (1/2)

A week ago, a small group of tenants, volunteers and Giroscope staff hand painted them, giving them a second life. We hope that you enjoy the festive period. Merry Xmas to all of you! (2/2) #MerryChristmas2024

We have excellent nonprofit housing providers in England doing this @Giroscope_Hull @CanopyCan @LATCHLeeds @CCampus87 @GroundworkGM and council schemes like @NUEKent what we need is investment and better powers to allow this to happen more, happen faster and happen everywhere.
