This morning our CEO @mblakebrough62 visited the @CAVDAS22 team in #Cardiff for his CEO Roadshow 2024.

It was great for Martin to hear from staff about how they are getting on and share information on Kaleidoscope's organisational strategy.

Thanks for all who attended!

It's the Easter holidays 🐰 If you know a young person interested in #volunteering, pop in to @cardiff_hub tomorrow to say hi 👋 We can introduce you to some great opportunities happening in #Cardiff and discuss what you'd like to develop. We'll be there from 1pm tomorrow!

Your mental health matters, especially during financial stress.

This #DebtAwarenessWeek, remember there are places to turn to if you’re struggling and need support.

Here are a few helpful numbers; our helpline offers a non-judgemental space for you to share your worries 💚

On #DebtAwarenessWeek, we are highlighting how debt can impact your mental health, and how to get help.

👉 There's lots of support available, and you can find links to support services and more information here: https://bit.ly/3ILMCv2
