Hi all as part of the Tesco Greenock communinty and charity team. I’m doing an approx 6 mile sponsored walk with other colleagues taking place on 22nd August midday from Tesco Greenock to Inverkip Marina to raise money for Barnardos Thrive Greenock. Based in Terrace Road Greenock Barnardos Invercyde Thrive services include.

Family support: Supporting parents, carers and families in the community and in diverse cultural circumstances. Guidance and advice aimed at supporting vulnerable children and their families.

Life limiting conditions: Individual support through befriending services, short break care, day care and respite breaks for the family.

Short breaks for disabled children: Short breaks, providing sitter services, befriending and individual support. Emphasis on building confidence and independence through inclusive play, play/holiday schemes and enabling social inclusion and skills.

Young carers: Supporting those who look after an adult family member who has a serious illness or disability. Engages with educational services to reduce the risk of social exclusion or underachieving.

All the money raised will help kids and families in Inverclyde so will benefit the local community. Every Little Helps no matter how small the donation is. Anything is greatly apprceciated thank you. Barnardos Thrive Inverclyde
