Remembering our Star Training Day. We had a fantastic morning with CGL training focused on alcohol and substance abuse with Hannah. The session on administering Naloxone was excellent. Lots of our volunteers attended the free session to learn more about supporting those in need safely.

We've said it before, but we'll say it again, it's marvellous and inspiring when people drop by with donations for us. Meena has gone one better & has since January this year donated via Asda a monthly delivery. What a difference this regular order makes to us and for our guests. #communitykindness
