Stainforth 4ALL – March 2026

Spring has arrived, and it’s been another busy and positive month here at Stainforth 4 All!

Easter Fun for Families

We were delighted to host a fantastic Easter celebration during the school holidays. Local children and families took part in a fun-filled day seeing the Easter bunny and receiving an Easter egg! The event was ‘egg-cellently’ attended, with 185 Easter eggs given out during the day. It was wonderful to see so many smiling faces, and we’d like to thank everyone who joined us and helped make the day so special. 

Weekly Groups Going Strong

All of our regular groups remain well attended and as welcoming as ever. Our Knit & Natter, Sewing Club, and arts and crafts sessions continue to provide a space for people to relax, socialise, and get creative. These groups are a vital lifeline for many in the community, helping to reduce isolation and build friendships.

Supporting Our Community

Behind the scenes, we continue to support individuals and families with a wide range of needs, from accessing essential services to offering a listening ear. Our team is always here to help, and we’re proud to play a role in supporting the wellbeing of our community.

Looking Ahead

As we move further into spring, we’re planning more activities and opportunities for local people to get involved. Keep an eye out for upcoming events, including family activities and trips.

As always, we’d like to thank our amazing volunteers, supporters, and everyone who takes part in what we do. If you’d like to get involved, join a group, or find out more, please don’t hesitate to get in touch—we’d love to welcome you.
