It's not every day that BCM NI can say they have opened a new shop, but here we are!

Taking inspiration from our sister home Kirk House , Copelands has recently opened its own general store, and with a name that holds special significant to the wider organisation. 𝑮𝒓𝒐𝒔𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒓'𝒔 𝑪𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒍 𝑺𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒆

Residents marked the opening of the store alongside former members of the Grosvenor Hall congregation, which ceased meeting in 2025. The congregation had donated all of the products for our shop which will directly benefit our residents.

This new service will provide them with easy access to toiletries when they run out, meaning they do not have to rely on family and friends to bring items in for them. This is designed to offer greater choice and independence for our residents, with proceeds being used to stock our shelves.

To say thank you, we invited the congregation to Copelands for a 3-course lunch and to officially open the shop. It will open to residents one day a week starting at the end of February.

This week is Will to Give week and we want to thank those of you and your families who have in the past or will someday support BCM services through legacy giving.

Like our service users, we don't know what's down the road for us, but we can make well informed decisions now that help people in need no matter what happens in the future.

Legacy giving makes a massive impact on our charitable services at BCM- if you want to know more about leaving a gift in your will, we would love to chat.

From counselling, to daytime activities in homes, to helping individuals with emergency costs, this important money will make a big difference in the lives of our service users over the next year.

If it has been on your to do list, you still have time to donate digitally. The portal will close on Friday 22 August at 4pm so please do consider joining us in this response to need.

Local printmaker Sarah Majury brought her letterpress printer to show us how it works. Our residents loved talking about old-style printmaking and having a go at creating their own prints.
What a wonderful trip down memory lane!❤️
