Count down to open day is ticking down! This week we had all sorts of jobs - assembling flat pack furniture, painting the loo floors, weeding, scraping moss, another coat of paint for the kitchen and a good clean of the entrance.

We had ELEVEN folks from Goodgym join this morning. And every last person got stuck in, under the supreme direction of Kim and Lyndsey.

Matt was seriously under pressure, with a malfunctioning, temperamental water pressure hose contraption. Those walls in the courtyard garden are begging for a pressure wash. And by jove I believe Matt fixed it!

Thanks Lavender Hope - we’ll be back!

We want to help the local community by becoming a hub for people to come and feel at home, whereby we can assist with social inclusion.

We want to be able to help people with training for qualifications or CV help and advice, basically vocational rehab. Additionally, a safe place for children to come to after school, with their parent's consent to come and either partake in after-school activities, e.g games, cooking. We would also like to signpost people who may be suffering from mental health issues and lastly benefit help utilizing turn2us and calling Universal credit. We are here to help people get back on their feet, with care and support.
