A new face at the German YMCA

Since 1st January we have a new service and a new member of staff. Alice Melsheimer will establish a new volunteer placement service, finding placements in organisations in the UK for volunteers from Germany and vice versa.

A warm welcome to our team!

 

 

German Advice Centre: closed!

German Welfare Council:
                      open for business

At the end of 2009 the German Advice Centre (GAC) in Belgrave Square had to close its doors after more than 50 years due to funding problems. But the main charity, the German Welfare Council, managed to fund one position to continue some of the work of the GAC. In this way Ms Doreen Heinecke of the GAC could be employed to work mainly from home to advise Germans living in the UK. The YMCA has provided an office on our premises to allow her to meet people in person twice a week (by appointment only: 020 7262 2463, info@gwc-london.org.uk).

Welcome Doreen!

 

 

Weihnachtsmarkt

Even though we had far fewer donors, the Christmas Market was a great success. We filled the gap with Stollen and biscuits which we bought from German firms. The handicrafts from the Hildebrandt family and the fresh bread and Bretzeln from the German baker in Ham were popular as ever and thus we raised £6,324 for good causes.

Thank you to all donors, helpers and shoppers!
