While Jamie has been away, someone had to step up to the plate.

And step up Nichola has! Each week she has been putting us through our paces and introducing stretches never seen before!

Thank you Nichola, and Namaste 🧘‍♂️

Well what a lovely Valentines Disco we had today 🕺🥳❤️

Was so nice to see a few of our friends from Pottergate come and join in the fun with us.

It was a good thing we didn't have any awards for best dancer as we would still be there trying to decide now!

1 week to go until our Valentines disco!

Our clients have been working hard all week making decorations and practicing their best dance moves.

Everyone is more than welcome to come along and join in the fun. 1-3pm @ Northern View.

We absolutely LOVE our poster for the Valentine's disco 💖.

In just over two weeks, we hope to see as many Casanova's coming along as possible for the cheesiest tunes that the DJ can think of. Everyone is welcome.

Perhaps someone you live with fancies coming or you pluck up the courage to ask that person that has had your eye? Whatever the relationship, come on down and celebrate with us with good music, good company, and most importantly, good fun!

One of our newest clients, Joelle, is in the process of raising money to allow her to get a new wheelchair that would benefit her in numerous ways.

Unfortunately, this comes with a pretty hefty price tag. But undaunted, Joelle and her family have risen to the challenge.

We will be organising a performance at some point to help towards the total and will keep you all posted when we know more, but in the meantime, Joelle and her family are busy raising money through the selling of mystery books. Perhaps that reader in your life has a birthday coming up? Or maybe you just fancy treating yourself? Either way, all the money raised goes towards a fantastic cause.

Donations of books are also gratefully received. Or just spreading the word. Whatever support you can give will be a big benefit.

We are raising funds to help buy a power wheelchair by selling our beautifully wrapped Mystery Books. Based in Eyemouth but able to post

Massive congratulations to our very own Sophie for raising an amazing £200!

Sophie decided to take part in her very first Boxing Day dip and very kindly donated the money raised to us at Northstar.

This money will go a long way to providing experiences and events that will benefit the whole group. Well done Sophie but you have thrown down the gauntlet for the staff to do the next one 😥.

Well we have had quite the packed December! 🎄🎅🥁🐴🕺

It started off with a lovely meal at the Greens Restaurant before getting right back in to practicing for our Christmas Concert.

It was amazing to see so many come out and support. Some new faces and our constant fans were all there to get in to the Christmas spirit with us. Together we managed to raise an amazing £437 💰 which goes towards providing fun experiences for our clients.

And speaking of fun experiences, we also enjoyed both a carol service and a live band as well! No wonder we are all exhausted.😴

We will be back next year with more events that we cant wait to see you all at, but in the meantime, all of us here at Northstar would like to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

It feels as if we have been practicing and listening to Christmas songs from about mid Easter, but it is finally our Christmas Concert tomorrow!🎄🎅🥁🐴🕺🤠

We have some Music, Makaton, Merriment and more to get even those most dedicated of Scrooges in to the Christmas feeling.

We also have quite a lot of raffle prizes so please bring some luck with you.

Doors are open at 1pm with the performance starting at 1:30. See you all there!

Today was the first Thursday of our Christmas Celebrations 🎄

We all went for a lovely meal at The Greens Family Restaurant. Great Food and Christmas Cheer was followed by a Mince Pie and a boogie.

With only 4 weeks to go before our Christmas Concert, now feels like the perfect time to share our poster and all the information that you need.

We hope to see as many of you there as possible on the 11th.

With just over a month to go till our Christmas Concert, we have been busy practicing and choreographing.

You can expect some surprises, old favourites, new soon to be favourites, fun, Christmas cheer! (and also a poster very soon that will give you all the details.)

We will also be holding a raffle again this year. We were blown away by the generosity of the donated prizes last year and raised over £250. In the past year we have used money such as this to go on Theatre trips, hiring live bands for social days, and loads of other fun things.

So if anyone has anything that they are willing to donate to this year's raffle then we would very much appreciate it.

Either way, we hope to see as many of you there as possible next month.
