<p>Hi everyone! I've recently become involved in a scheme called the Loose Ends Project, which aims to have volunteers finish off craft projects left incomplete when their creator has died or become too ill/injured to complete them, as a way of helping their loved ones come to terms with their loss. It's a new project started in the US, but now has volunteer "finishers" signed up in 37 countries, including many in the UK, who are ready and waiting to finish projects that have been left…</p>
<p>Hi everyone! I've recently become involved in a scheme called the Loose Ends Project, which aims to have volunteers finish off craft projects left incomplete when their creator has died or become too ill/injured to complete them, as a way of helping their loved ones come to terms with their loss. It's a new project started in the US, but now has volunteer "finishers" signed up in 37 countries, including many in the UK, who are ready and waiting to finish projects that have been left behind.</p>
<p>The project covers all types of fibre arts - knitting, crochet, sewing (all kinds - quilting, embroidery, cross stitch, etc.), felting, and so on.</p>
<p>I'm attaching the flyer for the project, which has the official detail on how to submit a project to be finished or to sign up as a finisher, and I have paper flyers available if there are any groups or businesses out there who would like to display them. The project's website is <a href="https://www.looseendsproject.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a> and please feel free to ask me any questions about the project you might have that aren't covered by the FAQ on there!</p> A Cleaning Company as Social Initiativetag:harringayonline.com,2022-09-17:844301:Topic:15079952022-09-17T16:51:51.481ZConhttps://harringayonline.com/profile/samdodds

<p style="font-weight: 400;">Having joined this site in 2010, not long after moving into the church in Mattison Road, I soon found ‘HOL’ to be an amazing community resource. For newcomers to the area, the site provides an instant network to the local community. I have always been grateful to Liz and Hugh for the hard work they put in to keep this site running. As HOL’s top scrounger, I have furnished several Homelessness accommodation projects including the house on Mattison Road, Martha House in Tottenham, The Annex in Hornsey, The Community House & The Manses in Hackney. There are also countless people that have move-on from these projects with items generously donated here, helping them to turn their new house into a home.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">In 2012, we put a call out inviting people to the initial steering committee of the Haringey Migrant Support Centre, now a successful charity providing support to many struggling to make a life in the United Kingdom.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Over the years, I have seen countless requests asking for cleaners and have often thought, how would a social cleaning company work in the area? When I see these requests, I think of the many people (mostly young mothers with children at school) who would love to work a few hours each week providing a few much-needed extra pounds. Then, I see the barriers in front of them. Such as English not being their first language, how would they cope with the bureaucracy of being self-employed, how would this affect their benefits, would they be safe, or would they be taken advantage of?</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">With the right support, I am sure many people would thrive with a part-time job with flexibility. Many young mothers, would enjoy the side benefits of like getting out of the house, meeting other adults and the self-esteem brought on by earning your own money etc. But there could be other benefits, support with other issues, like benefits, budgeting, accessing advice, education & training, employment support to find other positions etc… </p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Where does one start? Would homeowners support such a company? Is there a model already working somewhere else? I am keen to start a conversation with anyone who might be interested in something like this. From my experience, I understand the value of people being involved in such an endeavour, no matter how much time or energy they can give…</p>

<p>Hi</p>
<p>I'm a ladder resident with a houseplant shop soon to be 'popping up' in Angel/Old St from 8 February to 23 March 2019. I am taking a very short sabbatical from work to pursue a childhood dream!</p>
<p>However as I'm running the shop by and large alone and my interest in houseplants is still fairly recent, I'm looking for a green-fingered volunteer to help me out, anything upwards of a few hours once a week (especially on weekdays). In particular I'm looking for someone to impart…</p>
<p>Hi</p>
<p>I'm a ladder resident with a houseplant shop soon to be 'popping up' in Angel/Old St from 8 February to 23 March 2019. I am taking a very short sabbatical from work to pursue a childhood dream!</p>
<p>However as I'm running the shop by and large alone and my interest in houseplants is still fairly recent, I'm looking for a green-fingered volunteer to help me out, anything upwards of a few hours once a week (especially on weekdays). In particular I'm looking for someone to impart care advice to customers, tend to the plants and, ideally, someone who can help with my houseplant knowledge during quiet moments. Please note it is a cashless business. </p>
<p>Unfortunately, all I can offer by way of pay is travel expenses and heavily discounted plants. However if the shop turns a profit, I will calculate a share for your time. </p>
<p>Thank you in advance. </p>
