Thanks to the generosity of Bare Necessities, we have been given a range of gifts to share with mums in our community who might not otherwise receive one on Mother’s Day, including single mums and families who may be struggling at the moment.

If this would be helpful for you or someone you know, please feel free to pop in and speak to a member of staff to collect one.

We’re so grateful for the kindness that helps support mums in our community 🥰

Join us for a coffee morning on Friday 6th, as we come together at 10am to celebrate International Women’s Day ☕️

This year’s theme, Give to Gain, reminds us how powerful it is when women support and lift one another 🥰

As this year also marks 115 years of International Women’s Day, we’ll be gathering for a coffee, connection and a gentle focus on wellbeing.

Every lady will receive a small gift to celebrate just how valued she is ❤️

Everyone is welcome

We’ve got beautiful, colourful flowers popping up outside The Welcome, which we planted last year, and they’re definitely brightening us up! 🌸

It’s amazing what a little splash of colour can do and spring might just be on its way! 😁
