HADCA is proud to be a THE LOCAL FUND for the Harrogate District partner with Harrogate Borough Council and Two Ridings Community Foundation. 

This year our volunteers have never been more needed and they have stepped up to provide vital services to local people who have no-one else to turn to.

Our HADCA Impact Report gives some examples of how we have helped and connected communities, charities and volunteers over the last year.

Covid-19 has given rise to unprecedented times and completely changed the way we live and work. This is true for our local charities keeping people safe, happy and healthy, offering opportunities to connect through online and physically distanced learning, creative and social activities. Charity teams have remained passionately committed to supporting people who need their services. 

Our round up of advice, guidance and community information to support charities, volunteers and communities in Harrogate District will be reviewed regularly during these challenging and changing times caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.

Since the start of the COVID-19 outbreak, HADCA has been supporting people in Harrogate and Ripon to help them stay safe and well at home.

On Tuesday 24 March Harrogate Community House closed to visitors until further notice. We look forward to welcoming visitors and meeting room users back to Community House in the future, when it is safe to do so.  

With the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in the UK, it  is hard for people to maintain their social connections. Looking out for our neighbours has never been more important. We can all do our bit to ensure that people who need a little extra help are not forgotten at this time and remain safe – be they family, friends or neighbours.

Friends are like-minded people and organisations who wish to encourage charitable giving and gain support for THE LOCAL FUND for the Harrogate District.  A ‘Friend’ would act as an ambassador at events and meetings to encourage support for the Fund.
