NEWS
Fostering – Gill and Steven’s story
“I’d always got a lot out of family life and having a full house was something that had become second nature to me.
So after our sons moved out, fostering seemed like a really good option, as we’d also be helping children who were
in desperate need of a loving family.” Have you thought how you could change a child or young person’s life
forever? For more information and to register your interest, visit www.calderdale.gov.uk/fostering or call 01422
288001. To read Gill and Steven’s full story, visit our News Centre
No more 0845...
All Calderdale Contact Centre 0845 phone numbers have now been replaced with local 01422 numbers. This is a

numbers will continue for a transitional period to allow time for services to update printed material. The new
numbers are on the website.

Calling all Knitters and Crotchetier – the Big Knit is here again
How the big knit helps: As many as 24,000 older people die needlessly because of the cold
every winter. Many others spend the time lonely and isolated, unable to heat their homes
and struggling to get out and about.
So ten years ago Innocent had an idea. They asked some older people, and some younger
people, to knit little woolly hats. They put those hats on their smoothies, and for each one
sold they made a donation to Age UK.
For each behatted smoothie bottle they sell, they give 25p to Age UK to spend on things
like hot water bottles, blankets, hot meals and social gatherings. Many older people also
knit hats themselves through knitting groups organised by Age UK. The impact of the knitting groups is incredible
and for some, they’re a real lifeline. To get involved or for more information click here

Victims’ Services Directory
A new open-access online directory of services for victims of crime is currently being compiled by 2 researchers
working for Victim Support in partnership with the West Yorkshire Police & Crime Commissioner’s Office.
If you regularly work with victims of crime you may wish to ensure your organisation is included in the directory,
particularly if you welcome self-referrals.
Many victims prefer not to report a crime to the police, and therefore do not get signposted to Victim Support or
other agencies that could support or advise them.
Entry in the directory gives free publicity to your organisation and will enable not only service users but a wide
range of other agencies to contact you easily.
For further information and to check your organisation is in the directory, contact: Victims’ Services Researchers
