The Hibernian Community Foundation

Gail has been volunteering with the Hibernian Community Foundation for over 1 year, and in that time she has become a staple of the Wednesday Lunch Club ๐Ÿฅช
Itโ€™s the people that Gail has met that stands out as her highlight, alongside the sense of satisfaction that comes with a properly organised event!
On her time with HCF so far, Gail said:
โ€œWe bring people together in a space where they can be themselves and enjoy time in a comfortable and caring environment. We help people who are dealing with the cost of living crisis, loneliness or any other difficulties by offering a warm and safe space where people can meet and make friends.โ€
Thank you, Gail

Itโ€™s thanks in large part to Simon Wootton that weโ€™re able to show off the incredible work carried out by our team and volunteers!
Simon has been photographing the best that Hibernian Community Foundation has to offer for 18 months ๐Ÿ“ธ
He believes the work that we do is all about connection and photography plays a major part in that. Speaking on his time with us, Simon said:
โ€œWe make a difference with so many things, but itโ€™s mostly about people connecting with each other. It may be something to eat, having a sing or playing sport, but itโ€™s people being close to each other and creating new bonds and friendships that I feel is the most important thing HCF does.โ€
Simonโ€™s photographs are incredibly important to us. He captures these special moments, and enables us to tell our story to our community and fans.
Thank you, Simon (EcossePhoto) ๐Ÿ’š

Stephen has a bit of experience volunteering, itโ€™s fair to say. 11 years in total!
When the previous coach left their post, the Fit4Life sessions were in danger of stopping.
Having gained so much from them himself, Stephen didn't want that to happen, so stepped in to ensure it carried on ๐Ÿ‹๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ
