On 1 February 2020 Barton Hill Settlement and Wellspring Healthy Living Centre merged to become Wellspring Settlement. Our vision is to bring together all the strengths and skills of the two organisations to provide more for our local communities.
Wellspring Settlement enables our community to actively participate in positive, life-affirming activities. We offer a unique space for residents of Barton Hill and the wider area to celebrate, learn, create, develop, relax, socialise and play. From young people to the more mature; from new residents of our locality to those who have lived here all of their lives are all welcome.
Over the next few days and weeks we will find a suitable way to remember Wendy and will share any updates regarding this on our Facebook page.
How is Wellspring Settlement responding to the Black Lives Matter movement?
We have brought together a staff team to look at our new organisation, how we tackle racism, support and grow our Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) staff and encourage more opportunities for BAME engagement from our communities. We will be bringing forward actions to ensure we stay at the forefront of diversity, equality and inclusion practices.
We welcome contributions from local people so if you want to join us on this vital journey, please get in touch. Contact Elaine Flint Co-Director, email: elaine.flint@wellspringhlc.org
Wellspring Settlement UPDATES
We like to thank the parents who donated these flowers to the settlement garden in memory of Wendy Robbins.
We are saddened to share the news that Wendy Robbins, formerly Cottle, passed away peacefully yesterday with her family around her.
Wendy was proud of Barton Hill, living and working here for many years, and was a great advocate for the community. She was loved and respected by the staff and everyone that she worked with. She touched the lives of many families and she will be sorely missed.
Over the next few days and weeks we will find a suitable way to remember Wendy and will share any updates regarding this on this Facebook page.
