THANK YOU @astongroupuk for your continuous service and support! Last week Rachel ran 3 courses and we also got 40 towels donated for our residents! Once a new room is dressed and ready for a new resident to move into, we can now provide some plush fluffy towels 😊 #thankyou
This was the ground floor bedroom BEFORE the building works started in our 'move-on' property! Most commonly the original layout of Victorian houses was the living space at the front of the house, opening up to a large kitchen at the back. #victorianhouse
We value learning and growing at Branches! Especially, in areas that directly impact the well-being of our residents. Our team is committed to developing and staying up-to-date on important topics like Homelessness Law, Practice, and the Homelessness Reduction Act 💡#homelesslink
Progress at the ‘move-on’ property! Walls being knocked down; essential structures being replaced-the work focusing on bringing a sturdier and eco-nomical home into the modern era of living, up to LETI standards. #letistandards
We will be taking part in Mental Health Awareness Week in May! We value health at Branches, so taking care of mental & physical health, and encouraging it;is like gold dust to us! Plus, we love green, green plants, green themes & green things! #wearitgreen #MentalHealthAwareness

This is what the kitchens looked like BEFORE the work went underway! This will look very different after the work is complete, with the vision influenced by sustainability & eco-friendly design principles. This property has been altered to have 2 kitchens. #moveonproject
Our 'move-on' property, looks like a building site but there are further changes that you wouldn't be able to notice! We call it intermittent changes......😊 #moveonproject #brancheshostel #walthamforest #sustainablehome #economicalhome #EcoFriendly #charitysector
Sundays will be filled with Rosemary! Our lovely volunteer Rosemary will be joining us on the 5th May between 10-1pm, so residents can have a chat, get support with CV writing and to play board games 😊 #sundays #brancheshostel s #e17 #branchesevents #walthamforest

Branches 'Move-on' property..... Internally Victorian houses usually had high ceilings and large windows were a feature of Victorian homes. This house will be retrofitted into a modern home, more energy efficient home; reducing the amount of energy homes need 😃

Every volunteer cook mentor provides feedback on how they feel each individual has got on. "The impact on this lady was significant. They improved their cooking abilities but gained confidence in the kitchen and developed a deeper appreciation for food and different dishes."
"These recipes are so cost effective and I can continue to save money by shopping locally and from scratch. I'll be trying different vegetables next time and will see what's available in the market too as they have great bargains."
This year we started working in partnership with @Catch22 , who provide 1-2-1 employability +follow up support to our residents with access to ESOL classes. 1-2-1 support provided is tailored around individual needs with face-to-face appointments booked as and when needed😊

For 9 yrs I’ve been immensely proud to work @HomelessLink. For 18 years I’ve been immensely proud to work in the homelessness sector. But today took it to a new level. Together we are strong and we will be heard. What an incredible collective we are 💜#EndingHomelessnessTogether
This #internationalwomensday we’re sharing a message from our client Amy, who worked with our team to find stability and safety whilst recovering from her experiences. By using #traumainformed practices we can better support those affected on the journey to rebuilding trust🕊
Yesterday, we welcomed Jaspreet Kaur. She explained her journey to becoming a poet and published writer to our Year 7 students @behindthenetra
There are many barriers that prevent people from cooking. One barrier is that people are understandably worried about energy costs. All our Bags of Taste recipes are low energy, mainly cooked on the hob and don't require lots of equipment. We make the process easy.
St Mary’s Play Area is a great way to support the church w/a £3 donation while giving babies & toddlers a safe place to explore & play. Our Play Area is also a brilliant way to connect with other parents/carers. It’s open Monday-Friday 8.30am-4pm & Saturday 9am-4pm. #Walthamstow
"I gained more confidence in cooking as the programme progressed. The recipes were easy to understand and carry out. I also learnt how to manage my finances and make healthy food. The support and encouragement given by the group made it fun and easy."
