They are here…

We’ve taken delivery of a box full of shiny new collection boxes, to be picked up here at Ella Road anytime within office hours. If anyone is interested in becoming a new collection box volunteer for us…. we’d love to hear from you. There are still a few areas not covered currently or maybe you know of the right pubs/shops/places in your neighbourhood?

Masquerade Ball

Staff member Clare says: “It was an amazing night at the Ball last Friday. The event raised funds for the Hamlet Centre, and our thanks go to Liz, Swaffham  Start manager for organizing it. A wonderful time was had by all.”

New Chief Executive

The Board of trustees of the Hamlet Centre Trust is delighted to announce that Pauline Morgan has been appointed as its new Chief Executive. Pauline brings with her a wealth of experience, both in delivery and management of services in Health, Children’s Services and Further Education. Pauline has been very impressed by the outstanding work at the Hamlet Centre over the last few years, and is looking forward to supporting and building on that as new chapters open at Ella Road and Johnson Place. Pauline will start at The Hamlet Centre on 21st November, and will overlap for the first week with Michael Rooney. Michael’s last day will be on 25th November.

Space for creativity

Our students at Ella Road have been using the art room to create large format striking artworks for the walls, aren’t they fabulous!
