Vital resources available free of charge

Charities and community groups can now benefit from receiving free resources, courtesy of businesses donating their surplus stocks.

The only requirement is that the charities and community groups register at www.givingworldonline.com, there is even an option to request certain products that would truly help the local community, completely free of charge.

Giving World receives goods from businesses all over the country, and advertises the items on the website for charities to request and pass on to their beneficiaries.

Partnership Opportunities

Giving World wants to expand their reach by creating partnerships with charities to become accessible to more people in desperate need. By working together, we can minimise delivery costs and pool resources to ensure that people get the help they need.

Do you demonstrate expertise and have a proven track record in working with disadvantaged communities?
Do you have in-depth knowledge of local areas and already established links with other local community groups and charities?
Do you display a similar ethos and values to Giving World, sharing the vision of realising people’s potential and creating a fairer society?

If this sounds like you, then register an interest and arrange an informal discussion, by emailing rama@givingworldonline.com. Please provide your name, contact number and organisation details.

Hambleton Community Action would like to acknowledge its thanks to Latimer Hinks Solicitors who recently donated funds that were raised from a charity ball.

The event held in November 2017 was a resounding success which resulted in a record amount of £36,000 being raised.

Their main charities were St Teresa’s Hospice and the Darlington and Bishop Auckland Scanner Appeal but they also want to donate to additional local charities in the hope that a small donation would make a great deal of difference. Hambleton Community Action were fortunate in being chosen as one of the smaller local charities and received £500.

Public health report looks back to future

Hambleton Community Action is a registered charity providing support to voluntary and community groups in the local district. We also promote volunteering and offer a number of services for the local community.
