“They have changed my life from being at home all the time to something lovely to look forward to” - J,a project participant. A big thank you to The National Lottery Community Fund for supporting our organisation.

Yesterday I made and cut my 2nd grandson’s 1st birthday cake, while across the ocean my friend’s wife dies. We may wake to bright mornings but sorrow is always in the kernel of life. Don’t forget to honour each day you meet and share the love you feel.

Very upsetting scenes at Bolton Wanderers. Well done to the stewards and medical staff. And credit to ref Sunny Gill stopping the game within moments of the medical emergency becoming apparent. You can feel nothing but powerless in these situations. British Heart Foundation do a 15 min online
