A big thank you to everyone who popped in to see us at GATHER in the Dolphin centre in Poole yesterday. We had lots of partner agencies join us, making it a really busy, well attended event. Over 80 people dropped in to have their blood pressure taken, including one of our local MPs, Neil Duncan-Jordan MP pictured with Sue, one of our governors and an active volunteer at UHD.
