A Big Thank You! 📚💙

We’re excited to share that this week we’ve been generously donated a wonderful collection of children’s reading books from Browns Books ! A huge thank you to them for their support, and to the SBC Community Benefits Scheme for making this possible. 🙏

These books will be put to great use in the groups and activities we deliver, alongside our amazing partners, within the community. We can’t wait to see how these stories inspire and engage our young readers!

Your generosity helps create a brighter future for our kids, and we are so grateful for your continued support. 🌟
