About
Helping Hands is a vibrant community center at the heart of Edlington, dedicated to uplifting and empowering our local community. From providing essential services to fostering connections and learning, we’re here to support individuals and families through a variety of programs. Discover more about our mission, our dedicated team, and the positive impact we’re making every day.
Our Aims
At Helping Hands, our goal is simple: to uplift the community both socially and economically. We aim to reduce unemployment by providing job search facilities and promoting health and wellbeing initiatives. By offering a "helping hand," we empower individuals with the skills and tools they need to grow, thrive, and contribute to their community.
Our Mission
Our strength comes from the people. Volunteers from all walks of life contribute to Helping Hands, making it one of the largest and most diverse community centres in Doncaster. Through teamwork, dedication, and community spirit, we deliver a wide range of services that empower individuals and strengthen the local area.
Our Impact
At Helping Hands, we believe in self-help regeneration. By working closely with the community, we help people develop new skills, build confidence, and offer the support they need to shape their future.
The Helping Hands Charity Shop plays a vital role in our community's self-help regeneration. Every donation and purchase directly supports the centre’s wide range of services and activities.
Volunteering
Join our amazing team of volunteers! Helping Hands thrives thanks to the dedication of our volunteers, who bring diverse skills and motivations. Whether you're looking to give back, meet new people, or develop new skills, volunteering is a rewarding experience that not only enriches the community but also helps you grow as an individual.
