Our Kids Network Aldershot Hub
The Aldershot Hub is changing the way parents find solutions for helping their children and teens grow into responsible and caring adults.
Calendar
This is a deep-rooted community with longstanding partnerships in place. The Aldershot Hub is fortunate to have a team of more than 16 talented and caring people drawn from local agencies and organizations. Combining our resources and reaching out to partners in the education sector, local government and the faith community, we have been able to develop approaches that have real and lasting impact. A partnership with the Burlington Learning Foundation and the Warwick Surrey Community Association, for example, is tackling the problem of high rates of school absenteeism by securing bus passes for youth living in Warwick Surrey.
“My first experience at the (Aldershot) Hub was collecting a Halton Fresh Food Box. I couldn’t have been more warmly welcomed. The coordinator and volunteers were all pleasant, caring, and nurturing people.” Fred, Food for Life program participant
Working together with the Compassion Society and ReFresh Food, the Hub is providing six hours a week when families can drop in to receive food and material aid. Through these partnerships and many more, the Aldershot Hub is committed to coming up with better ways of bringing people, services and resources together in order to empower and address the unmet needs of youth and families in our community.
