Today is World Diabetes Day 💙
Awareness is the first step towards control.

If you’re in the Burnley area, you’re invited to join our monthly Diabetes Group — held on the first Tuesday of every month, 2:00–3:30pm at the Canal & River Trust in Rosegrove.

Come along to listen, ask questions, or share your own experience. Together, we can learn, support one another, and live well with diabetes. 💪

🚭 Smoking affects more than your lungs. It harms your whole body:

🫁 Lungs – damage to airways, increased risk of cancer & COPD
🧠 Brain – raises risk of stroke & addiction cycle
❤️ Heart – increases blood pressure, heart disease & heart attack risk

Every cigarette causes harm—but quitting starts the healing. 💙

It was a beautiful sunrise for our 5K Samaritans Dawn Walk for the team on Saturday. Thank you for the kind donations towards this very valuable organisation.

"Dawn Walk is in celebration of World Mental Health Day, in solidarity with those struggling to cope."

World Mental Health Day Reminder 💙🌎

Mental health isn’t always visible — you never truly know what someone might be going through.
Take a moment today to reach out, check in, and remind the people you love that you care.

You’re never alone, and you don’t have to go through it alone either. 💙
