Glebe House celebrates fifty years
Fifty years of the Glebe House Community Trust celebrated
More than 100 guests gathered on 16 October to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the Glebe House Community Trust.
Among those celebrating was Geoffrey Brogden, who founded the Cambridgeshire project. He gave a speech, as did Friends Sue Brock-Hollinshead and Sheila Gatiss. Peter Clarke, director of Glebe House, gave the welcome speech.
Guests heard a harpist play and enjoyed a display of work from Glebe House’s social enterprise project, ‘Turn the Other Chic’. A totem pole made by residents was also on show. The festivities ended with a hog roast and the cutting of an anniversary cake, by Geoffrey Brogden and the newest Glebe House resident.
In the evening, staff and residents joined together for ‘Glebe’s Got Talent’.
‘It was a chance to relax and unwind after a busy day and have some fun,’ Glebe House head of business and operations Jeanette Hurworth told the Friend.
Glebe House carries out specialist work with teenage males with sexual issues, both victims and offenders.
