We at Wick Award want to give a huge shout-out to our incredible volunteers who dedicate countless hours, year-round, to making positive change happen in Hackney Wick. 🙌💖
Our volunteers are the heart and soul of this community. ❤️ They roll up their sleeves to pitch in on all kinds of activities that bring people together and make Hackney Wick a better place to live. 🌟
From serving up delicious meals at community gatherings, to helping out at fun family events in the park, to providing a listening ear and support - the giving spirit of our volunteers powers everything we do. 🍽️👪🗣️
The photos say it all - volunteers of all ages and backgrounds coming together with smiles on their faces, united by a shared passion for uplifting the neighbourhood. 😊🤝 Their dedication and community pride is truly inspiring. 🌈
So to all the @BigLocal Wick Award volunteers out there - THANK YOU! 🎉 This week and every week, we appreciate you more than words can say. 🙏 Hackney Wick is a brighter, more connected place because of your selfless service. Volunteers really do power our community! ⚡
Huge congratulations to Wick Award on their 10 year celebration 🎉✨
An organisation that’s not just rooted in Hackney, but woven into the Wick’s story 🧡
Two of our directors have been part of the Wick Town Hall since the very beginning, sitting in a resident capacity back when the area looked VERY different 👀 (late 90s Wick crew will remember 😅). To see it grow from what it was then, into five neighbourhood areas and one of the most loved & vibrant parts of our borough today, is honestly very special 🌱🏘️
Wick Award has also been a huge supporter of Closet, backing us from our early days and awarding us our very first grant back in 2020 🥹💫 - something we’ll always hold close to our hearts.
So lovely to see colleagues, residents and friends all together, sharing food, laughs and good energy 🤝✨
Big love to our amazing host @blobelization - we love & appreciate you always! 🍾🖤
Here’s to community, legacy and the next decade!🥂🎊
Ps: Lovely to be out of our hall & at our lovely neighbours @gascoynecommunitycentre .. check out the wonderful range of activities they’ve got on for residents too! 😊❤️
