🌟 Big Milestone for Bradley!

We’re thrilled to celebrate Bradley’s very first payday, a fantastic achievement and the start of something truly brilliant.

Since joining the Hesley Group IT Department in January 2026, after a successful interview in December, Bradley has become a valued part of the team. Every Friday, he contributes his skills and enthusiasm as part-time IT Support, and this payday marks an exciting moment in his journey.

With his first wages, Bradley is proudly beginning to build his savings - all working towards his dream holiday to Ibiza.

We’re incredibly proud of everything Bradley has accomplished so far and can’t wait to see what he achieves next. Keep shining, Bradley!

Tasty Tuesday Treats at Meadow View! 🌿

Tasty Tuesday came around again at Meadow View earlier this week and our taste buds enjoyed a double treat!

Using red cabbage and leeks grown in our very own allotment by the people we support, our cookery tutor Deb and horticulture tutor Kirstie served up cheesy leek flan and Turkish coleslaw, and both dishes were a hit.

Everyone loved tasting the home‑grown creations, and we’re already looking forward to the next Tasty Tuesday on 31st March. 🗓️💚

A Legacy of Care: Celebrating Andy’s Retirement

Today we say a heartfelt thank you and farewell to Andy as he retires from Mercury College. From the coal mining industry to care management to becoming our Pastoral Lead, Andy has brought resilience, integrity and purpose to every role he’s held.

At Mercury College, he became the bridge between care and education - championing students, supporting staff, and helping shape the culture of our college from its earliest days. Students hold him in high regard, staff value his wisdom, and his compassion has changed lives for the better.

As he steps into retirement, we wish him every happiness: more time on the golf course, time with his wonderful family, and a well‑earned rest.

Thank you, Andy, for your humour, commitment and heart. Mercury College won’t be the same without you - but your legacy will live on.

📣 Celebrating a Wonderful Milestone at Copperclay Mews! 🌟

We’re incredibly proud to share a special moment from Copperclay Mews. One of the people we support, who has been navigating a very challenging period with their mental health over the past couple of years, achieved something truly inspiring this week.

For the first time in almost two years, they felt able to enjoy a night out at Popworld York - something they have missed dearly. With the encouragement and support of our dedicated staff team, they were able to relax, dance, and simply enjoy being themselves again. 💃✨

Moments like these reflect what matters most to us: empowering individuals, celebrating personal progress, and supporting people to live the lives they choose. We are proud to support them throughout their journey and acknowledge every milestone achieved.

A huge well done - and a big thank you to our fantastic colleagues for living our values every day.

A Letter from The King Acknowledging Hesley Group’s Impact!

Yesterday, we were incredibly proud to receive a letter from Buckingham Palace acknowledging Hesley Group’s 50th anniversary and our efforts to raise £50,000 for charities last year.

To have our work recognised in this way is a real honour. The letter reflects not only this milestone year, but the dedication, compassion, and commitment shown every day by our colleagues, and the remarkable people we support and their families who make our community so special.

For 50 years, Hesley Group has been focused on putting people first, supporting individuals with autism, learning disabilities, and complex needs to live meaningful and fulfilling lives. This recognition is a reminder of the impact that collective purpose, care, and belief can achieve.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to our journey so far and to those who continue to shape our future.

WeAreHG.
