Come along and join us for a face to face catch up the first in a very long time. This will be a bit of a chance to meet and chat, and access some resources, advice and support. An opportunity to touch base after having been unable to meet locally for an extended period of time.

We will be meeting on a Wednesday this particular day, in the lead up to our new regular catch up venue and days (which will be on a Tuesday, 2 times per month), moving forward. If you can make it, we would appreciate a quick comment down below, so we have an idea of numbers, as there is a maximum of 30 people in gatherings (including children and infants). At this stage, we cannot share food, so please bring along your own drinks and nibbles. Where: APEX Park We will be set up at one of the tables under the shelters. Please do check back here for any updates in case we need to meet elsewhere (e.g. if there are too many people already there, or for changes in circumstances).
