EASINGWOLD AND DISTRICT CHEQUE PRESENTATION February 2020

`

Kurts Club are one of those unsung charitable groups that make Easingwold a better place. Volunteers giving up their own time to help about a dozen residents between the ages of 20 – 70 who have various mental health issues. They are offering a much needed service and indeed they have been doing this for a considerable time! Managers Julie Kitchen who helps run the Club has been doing this for the past thirteen years, while Linda Bryan is not that far behind.

The name is taken from the room at the Galtres Centre that they use for their sessions and they are a bit like a little family where everyone supports one another. The members talk and discuss their problems as well as taking part in a program of planned activities, eg crafts, music, literature, well-being and writing poetry etc – for many members it is their only social activity each week outside of home….
