Disco Night snaps ✨️

We had a fantastic Friday night!

30 people with learning disabilities, from all over the county, joined us for an inclusive evening of music and dancing. It was brilliant to see so many new faces 💜

Keep your eyes peeled on our socials for a reel showcasing some epic dance moves!

What an incredible donation 💜

Earlier this year, the West Herts Charity Trust donated a wheelchair-accessible Ford Tourneo and funded minibus driver competency training for 8 of our Support Workers!

This means we have accessible and flexible transport options for the people we support, and a team with the skills and confidence needed to make the most of this valuable resource. It's already making a fantastic difference to our community! Having transport like this means more opportunities to get out and about, enjoy new experiences, and have greater independence.

Thank you for your generous donation and continued commitment to supporting our work.

- Recognising when someone might be ready to move
- Finding the right home and understanding the support available
- The process and decisions involved
- How independence, choice and the right support can work together

Thank you to everyone who visited us at the Harpenden Festival on Saturday ✨

With your support, we:

- Raised £478.79 at our home produce stall and through donations

- Welcomed 90 new newsletter subscribers, and we're delighted to have you with us. You're just in time for our autumn newsletter!

We had such an incredible response from everyone passing by. It was marvellous meeting you all!

Extra special thanks to our 20 wonderful bakers, makers and gardeners who kindly donated their time and skills, producing tasty treats, jams, chutneys, fragrant lavender bags, and perfectly potted plants. Thanks also to our energetic volunteers who helped set up, share our mission, sell the produce, and pack down again afterwards. We couldn't have done it without you 💜
