After the incident in which our window was broken earlier this year, we have now had it replaced! This was a very sad incident for us as we opperate on a very small budget and large unexpected costs such as vandlism to our building are very detrimental to our running.

Our development officer Liz came to visit this week, it has been a very busy week with meetings across the community before our development project fully begins in 2026. Keep your eyes peeled for future updates…
