Our Hop Into Easter event was really successful!

Many came for the Easter Egg Hunt and stayed for the food and art.

Thanks to Season Well Food, all the volunteers at , Hamwattan, Emma Dobson and the team, Nat and her team at We Belong Here, the artist Jo Knowles and the fabulous Sinead O’Reilly. We had a real sense of community, plenty of fun, family-friendly activities, a great variety of healthy, culturally diverse food—and of course, the sun shone gloriously.
