<strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Review</strong><br />

Having a place to<br />

Thrive matters<br />

This year we were excited<br />

to officially open the doors<br />

to Thrive and we welcomed<br />

over 150 people to the new<br />

community space, including<br />

local councillors and<br />

MP Paula Sherriff. Since<br />

then we have seen the<br />

space come alive with<br />

activities from local groups<br />

and organisations, including<br />

fitness sessions, reading and<br />

writing classes, craft clubs<br />

and wellbeing activities.<br />

In June we held a<br />

Great Get Together in<br />

memory of the late Batley<br />

MP Jo Cox. Thrive welcomed<br />

people from all ages and<br />

backgrounds and with all<br />

the cake, conversation and<br />

community spirit, the event<br />

was a perfect example of<br />

what Thrive was created for.<br />

We are<br />

far more<br />

united and<br />

have more<br />

in common<br />

with each<br />

other than<br />

things that<br />

divide us.<br />

The late MP Jo Cox<br />
