HASSRA London Update 2nd September 2011
Dear all,
I very much regret that since taking over as the HASSRA London Regional Business Partner last year, I have not had the time to be able to provide you all with regular monthly email updates. However, I am delighted to be able to tell you that as of this September, Paul Fitton the former HASSRA London Manager, has agreed to come back and help us out by producing a monthly members benefits newsletter that was so much enjoyed and used by so many of you. Paul is currently getting a number of new offers together ready for the first edition and I am very grateful for his agreement to come back and help us out.

40 volunteers in total needed
The Connection at St Martin’s
12 Adelaide Street
London
WC2N 4HW
15 – 20 volunteers are needed on both days to help paint the inside of this incredible drop-in centre.
The walls are all in good order but there are an awful lot of them hence the need for so many volunteers.
Even if you can only do half-a-day, it will help make a big difference.
The Connection at St Martin's helps homeless people by providing specialist services – including a day and night centre, outreach for rough sleepers, skills training and career advice, activity programmes and specialist support for complex needs – to over 200 people in central London every day. We offer advice, care and support in a welcoming and friendly environment. By encouraging each person to address the issues which caused their homelessness, we help them to gain the skills and confidence to make lasting changes in their lives.
