Reach Care

Our volunteers give so much to our charity. Without them, we simply would not be able to do what we do. Thank you to each and every one of you for your time, energy and commitment. 💖
We are also very proud to be supporting adults with learning disabilities to start or develop their own volunteering journeys, building skills, confidence and connections in their communities.

What a brilliant long weekend away on the Norfolk coast. Clients, staff and supporting carers enjoyed seaside walks, crab spotting, archery, meeting donkeys, games and lots of dancing at the evening discos. Add to that good food and good company, and it made for a really special supported holiday.

Trips like this help create opportunities for connection, confidence and shared experiences. Thank you to everyone who has supported and donated to Reach, as our holidays offer is reliant on voluntary income. We're already looking ahead to the next holiday!

It has been a fantastic week at Flower Pod Southwell 🍕🌿
We have loved welcoming teams from St. James's Place, with different employees joining us each day to work alongside clients. Together they have been building a cob pizza oven and supporting projects across the garden.
Thanks to funding from the St James’s Place Charitable Foundation, this brilliant new addition will soon be ready to use and today, on National Pizza Party Day, it feels especially well timed!
The oven will create new opportunities for the people we support, from cookery courses where participants can make and enjoy their own healthier pizzas, to celebration events and evening socials that bring people together.
A huge thank you to everyone involved for your time, energy and support. We cannot wait for the first pizza party.

What a day for the Flower Pod Flyers at Nottingham’s first Super Soapbox Challenge 🚀🌼
After months of designing and building their wheelbarrow-inspired racecart with clients, the team took on a very steep four metre starting ramp in Old Market Square… and flew! We are so proud of everyone involved. Watch our two minute video to see the journey from start to finish.

A small fall in round one did not stop them. They got back up, finished strong in the rest of the rounds and brought fantastic energy to the whole event with their flower power outfits 🌸
