Good morning all,
I hope your week is going well so far.
Our Christmas parties are filling up fast – we have received 50 responses in the last 48 hours, so do please contact Amber or myself if you wish to be added to the list.
Update! – Please note that our Christmas Lunch on Thursday 17th December IS NOW FULL. If you have not already booked a space, please be aware that there is a waiting list. We do have space on our second lunch on the following day: Friday 18th.
Please find our mid-week update with a summary of regular and special activities.
Please do contact us if you need a food parcel, CCGG @7Dials can provide you with a free food package each week. If you need help with shopping or medication collection, do let us know and we will do our best to organise a volunteer.
Helping people to get online is another priority for us, and we are putting together a pool of volunteers as well as fund raising for tablets and dongles to lend to people on long term loans.
