Acts have continued to carry our acts of kindness across Chester and North Wales. A sponsored run was completed just before lock down and over 5000 was raised. This money has been used to carry our acts of kindness including food vouchers, shopping, a laptop so someone could carry on with their counselling. The kindness boxes have grown in popularity and this has become the main acts of kindness carried out, referrals mainly coming from Countess of Chester and Arrowe park hospitals.

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)

Volunteers came together to support a domestic abuse family to relocate quickly, people left clothes, toys, microwave, furniture on their driveway for a collection to then be dropped at the new home for the family. A new cooker was funded too through the charity.
