DreamShine Community Groups and Funded Activities
In Spring 2021 we are planning to open our Community Hub. In the first instance our hub will initially provide Covid-19 secure, face to face support to our registered service users.
In other words support will initially be on an appointment basis only – and we will comply with all current regulations.

Pay It Forward
We will soon be opening our new Well-Beeing Hub and Café. (In line with Covid-19 regulations).
This new space will be for all members of our local community.
Times are hard, and we want to create a culture of kindness where everyone looks out for each other, and no-one is left behind. (We will post regular updates).
Paying-it-forward feels good – and the great thing about it is that EVERYONE can pay ‘something’ forward.
Everyone has a skill or something to offer – and it is not just about giving money.
Here are just some of the ways that you can Pay-it-forward via DreamShine.
- Volunteer either in our Café and Hub (in a Covid-19 secure way – when regulations permit) – or now as a Telephone Befriender
- Donate art and craft supplies.
- Donate tinned goods, non-perishables, or fresh fruit and vegetables.
- Pay in advance for a coffee/meal, which we will then give to someone in need.
- Make a one-off or small regular donation to help us fund our Café and Hub.
Please get in touch and let us know how you would like to Pay It Forward!
