Is there something that would make day-to-day life a little easier, but you’re not sure who to ask? Come and find us at Cascades Shopping Centre on Thursday 26 November.
The HIVE Portsmouth Disability Hub is teaming up with Portsmouth City Council’s Micro-provider Programme for a day of friendly chats, local information and, of course, tea and cake.
What’s happening
Between 10am and 3pm, you’ll find our stand near Starbucks. Stop by, say hello and tell us what would make life a little easier. That might be:
- help at home
- money and benefits
- getting online
- getting out and about
- support with sight loss
If it’s something else, ask us anyway. We’ll point you in the right direction.
One of the team can also walk you over to the HIVE Portsmouth Disability Hub on Kingswell Path, where there’s a warm welcome, a cuppa, cake and someone who can help.
It’s free, there’s no appointment and there are no forms to fill in.
Who can come?
Everyone is welcome. That includes people living with a disability or sensory impairment, their families and carers. If you know someone who could do with a helping hand, bring them along.
About the HIVE Portsmouth Disability Hub
The HIVE Portsmouth Disability Hub is a welcoming space in Cascades Shopping Centre for people living with a physical disability or sensory impairment, and their carers. Friendly volunteers who know what it’s like help with the everyday things that matter.
The Hub is open every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, 11am to 2pm. If you can’t make 26 November, you’re welcome to drop in on any of those days.
About Portsmouth micro-providers
Portsmouth micro-providers are local people who give a helping hand at home, from the same friendly face every time. That could be meal preparation, shopping, company or getting out. The Micro-provider Programme is a free programme run by Portsmouth City Council’s Independence and Wellbeing Team.
Thinking about becoming a micro-provider? If you have a caring nature and would like flexible work that fits your life, come and have a chat on the day. You can meet people who already do it and find out how the programme supports you to get started.
