Joining In Stockton Voluteers' Market 2023
Friday 2nd June 2023 we attended Catalyst Stockton's' Volunteers' Market. A very well organised and successful day. Our Heart Support Tombola / Promotion stall raised a fantastic £121!​ All made possible by the donation of all the fantastic prizes from our members and the tremendous help from Karen and Neil who helped to man the stall from 9am - 3pm. Dorothy had also agreed to help but unfortunately, couldn't make it. And not forgetting the public who came along to give their support. A big thank you, to you all. WELL DONE!
It was also a very good day promotional wise, lots of interest from other stall holders, the public and health professionals.
Personalised Care, Lead, Katie Mackay came along and introduced us to local social prescribers. We look forward to working with them.
Hartlepower CEO, Julian Penton popped by for a chat. Heart Support very appreciate their help and support.
Lovely to see and chat with the new Stockton Mayor and Mayoress, Jim and Pauline Beall who were in attendance and visited all the stalls. All in all a very interesting and successful day!
