Welcome to the Hanwell 'Our Bigger Story' website. This is part of the multi media evaluation of 15 Big Local areas in England. The website is an opportunity to follow what is changing in Hanwell as a result of Big Local over a ten year period.
The aim of the website is to share the learning from everything that is happening in Hanwell with other Big Local areas and highlight what works in communities with a wider audience of practitioners and policy makers.
For the past few days I've been making bags for the NHS after I saw a post on Facebook by @Six_Penny_Memories. I'm not a skilled needlewoman by any stretch of the imagination but I can manage to sew a straight line on my daughter's sewing machine - I got my mam's out but as you can see, I wasn't sure it would fit the bill. So if you're at a loose end take a look at the Facebook page Making for the NHS North of Tyne and see if you can donate fabric or make a bag or even knit or crochet a heart.
