One of our young people has recently transformed their property into a more welcoming and homely space thanks to funding received through the More Than a Roof Grant Programme, delivered by Centrepoint and Nationwide UK. Using the grant, they were able to purchase essential kitchen equipment alongside decorative items that have helped personalise their living space and make it truly feel like home. Having a safe place to live is important, but creating an environment where young people feel comfortable, settled and proud of their home can make a huge difference to their confidence, independence and wellbeing.
Yesterday we attended The Growth Company's Future of Employment event at the New York Stadium, and it was genuinely refreshing to be part of conversations that focused on people, not just programmes. Hearing from guest speakers reinforced something we see every day at Rush House: meaningful employment support isn't one-size-fits-all. It takes collaboration, understanding local challenges, and a shared commitment to creating opportunities that work for the people who need them most. It was encouraging to spend time with others who are asking the same questions we are about how we can better support our communities, break down barriers and help people move towards positive futures. A big thank you to The Growth Company for bringing everyone together. The Learning Community Ltd Marvel Training Ltd Archer ProjectPrinted by Us
A huge thank you to Karl Hantke and John Smith, who attended Rush House Limited yesterday as part of Insight's ongoing social value commitment. We were delighted to welcome the team who generously donated six Lenovo T14s laptops, complete with Windows 11 Pro licences, power supplies and USB mice. What made this donation even more valuable was the time they gave alongside it. They spent the day with us setting up and configuring each laptop, ensuring they were ready to be used by the young people and adults we support. Thank you for your generosity and for investing your time in our mission. It will make a real difference.
We know that the journey into employment, education and independence isn't always straightforward for care-experienced young people. That's why it's encouraging to see the ongoing commitment being made through the new Care Leavers Charter, guaranteed interview opportunities with the council and support available through the Rothercard scheme. Every young person deserves the chance to thrive, and initiatives like these help create pathways that make that possible. We look forward to seeing the positive impact this will have across Rotherham.
