As well as generating much needed charitable income to boost our ability to support people of all ages and all genders impacted by abuse and other emotional trauma, number 8 brings opportunities for CLEAR raise awareness about the impact of abuse and emotional trauma and provides volunteering opportunities for people who want to stay connected to the charity.
We are also doing our bit for the planet through a focus on re-use and re-purposed items.
All surplus monies made from activities at 8 Cathedral Lane are reinvested into our therapy and counselling services. It’s a win-win-win situation.
