Sainsbury’s Kenton Charity of the year Launch 13th January, 2011
HARROW MENCAP IS KENTON’S SAINSBURY’S CHARITY OF THE YEAR!!
The Launch of a year long programme took place on 13th January 2010 at the Sainsbury’s Superstore in Kenton. This popular event was attended by Harrow’s Mayor Councillor Asad Omar.
A high-light of the day was a play (directed with panache by Steve Porter) with Budding Artists from HARROW MENCAP’s ACTIVITY CENTRE performing as Anthony Hopkins, Dame Judy Dench, Meera Syal and Sir John Gielgud – with a stunning appearance by the Reindeer!!.
We were delighted also to be supported by Guitarist – MARK ANTHONY ADAMS who was joined by Bollywood Singer- SHAID ABAS KHAN.
A brilliant year ahead is anticipated with more shows, football training, t shirt making and a children’s treasure hunt (around the store!)
We extend our warm thanks to Phil Corthorn - Human Resource Manager and Bill Burch - Store Manager - thank you we really appreciate being your Charity of the Year!
Harrow Mencap is delighted to have been awarded the Investors In People Bronze award!! this is a 'step up' from the standard IiP award and we would like to thank all of our staff for their tremendous contributions every day working to support children, young people and adults with learning disabilities and challenging behaviour
COMMUNITY SOLUTIONS is Harrow Mencap's new service.
It's a specialist service! It's convenient! It's a quality service!
It's value for money! It's especially for you! It's reliable! it's different! It's wide-ranging!
if you are getting Direct Payments or an Individual Budget - or if you simply want to pay from your own money - we can help you to design a person centred package of support.
You're in charge! All you have to do is tell us what you want - or how you want to spend your days - and we'll do the rest! We can provide a Support Worker or Personal Assistant. They will open a new world for you - because you can choose what you want to do, where you want to go and when you want to do it!. The worker will help you to achieve your ambitions. Book as much time as you like - from just one hour to a whole day. Our workers are fully trained and have all been police checked.
