Why not pop along and see the team from 'In the Frame' at the official opening of their new Arts&Crafts workshop.

An opportunity to meet volunteers and showcase your own hidden talents that could be useful in supporting your local hospice.

A chance to make friends and develop your own skills and interests.

Before the bleak winter hits, this is a wonderful chance to make new connections and develop artistic talents.

This week is Baby Loss Awareness Week.

Baby loss is a tragedy that affects 1 in 4 pregnancies in the UK. Stigma and silence often means that families who have suffered loss feel isolated in their grief 💔

To honour every little life lost, we stand together with thousands of people around the world to light a candle or share an image of a candle at 7pm on Wednesday 15th October 🕯

If you or someone you love is needing further support following the loss of a loved one please reach out to your GP or click the link below.

💉 COVID-19 Vaccine Update 💉

We know many of you have been feeling frustrated about who is eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine this Autumn/Winter. We completely understand your concerns.

Unfortunately, we have to follow the latest national guidance, which means only certain groups are eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine this season.

Our team’s hands are tied, we can only offer it to those who meet the new criteria.

When you come in for your flu jab, please remember our staff aren’t withholding the COVID vaccine, the national guidance has simply changed.

Thank you for your understanding and kindness towards our team 🙏
