For all different kinds of reasons, people find us, work with us, help and support us. Sometimes it's in person, sometimes it's by donating a bag of glue sticks or chocolates and sometimes it's a financial gift. All these generous ways of supporting us means we can carry on longer helping others to have fun in this moment, at this time, with people who get it.

Thank you to all our supporters- you know who you are. 😇

Autumn has arrived at WelcomeMe
We made some gorgeous lanterns using the beautiful leaves that have fallen recently.
🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁
They certainly look lovely and cosy when the (battery powered) candle is on.

***Update! Nathan raised £420 for our groups. We are so grateful for all his efforts!! ***

We are lucky to be supported by lots of family members who recognise the great things we get up to and the benefits that go with them.
This is Nathan and his Nan and Grandad have been coming to Welcome Me for over 3 years! He gathered sponsors to raise money for us when he ran in the Chester marathon this weekend. He did it in 4 hours and 6 minutes!! 😳
Thank you Nathan, you did yourself and us proud 😇

We have all had a great time turning our wall tree into a lovely autumnal tree here at WelcomeMe.
🍏 🍐 🍎🍄
A fantastic joint effort by all 3 groups, working together to create a beautiful mural for us to enjoy.
The final result is amazing.
Well done everyone.

How gorgeous do these tealight holders look? 😍

A couple of weeks ago we started to make some tealight holders using cotton wool pads soaked in a paint and glue mixture which were then arranged over the rim of a reusable cup.

We had to wait a week for them to dry but we think they were worth the wait. Of course, for safety reasons they are only to be used with battery powered tealights, but they are still incredibly effective 💕

If you would like to come along and join us for fun and friendship then please get in touch.

It's been a busy couple of weeks here at WelcomeMe, so busy that we forgot to take lots of photos of our lovely groups having fun.

But here are a few that we did remember to take - one week we took part in our very own Wacky Races. We picked our vehicle, coloured them in and created our cars before a very competitive race to the finish line.

Last week we made flower-shaped tealight holders - we soaked cotton wool pads in coloured liquid and arranged them around the rim of a cup. We now have to wait until this week to see how well they've dried so we can put a battery-operated tealight in them. We are confident they are going to be gorgeous.
