“No Child Should Go Without”

A simple and powerful message from AberNecessities when I visited this week.

Sadly though, new UK House of Commons Library research reveals Labour’s decision to back the Tories’ cruel two-child limit will plunge 20,000 children in Scotland into poverty.

Over the years, this event has raised more than £12 million!

This year's beneficiaries:
📣 Shout
🚁 Wales Air Ambulance Charity
🏠 Centrepoint
⛰️ Mountain Rescue England and Wales
👧 Foundling Museum
➡️ The Forward Trust
🏡 EACH
👶 Baby Basics,Little Village and AberNecessities

This post from Abernecessities is utterly devastating - but sadly, it is not surprising.

Since the summer, Aberdeen Labour councillors have been raising the issue of the winter clothing crisis that our communities are now facing.

Abernecessities is a charity up here that does amazing work. If you’re able to chuck them some sunscreen so the little ones can play outside please do 🖤 amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls…

Alongside our friends at AberNecessities, we held our first-ever conference on ‘Street Belonging: Violence, Connection and Healing’ with guest speaker, Graeme Armstrong.

Thank you to everyone who attended. Thanks must also go to Graeme for sharing his inspiring story.👏

Earlier this week, our youth forum Granite City Speaks dropped off donated clothes from their December clothing drive to Abernecessities. 👏

The clothing drive came from an initiative led by the youth forum where they wanted to give back to their local communities.🤝

😀Great visit with Humza Yousaf and Audrey Nicoll MSP at AberNecessities this afternoon

🥫It was lovely to meet the hard working team who provide folk with everyday essentials items

👶We believe everyone should be able to afford basic essentials and no child should go without

Well done to our brilliant (and brave) team who completed the Beast Race recently. Fourteen colleagues from four offices took part in the 10km obstacle course, raising around £1,300 for AberNecessities — a charity supporting underprivileged families in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.

All set for a delivery to Inverurie Community Partnership Foodbank tomorrow. Many thanks to all who donated. We have a collection of coats going to Abernecessities too.🎄🎅🏼🎄

Now that’s a fixture sheet!! Fantastic to see all of our teams back in action this weekend!

⭐️ Come on you Northstar! ⭐️
