💖 We would like to say a huge thank you to the staff and customers of the Robert Dyas shop in Swindon for the proceeds of the collecting pot. The pot was so full it would not fit even one more penny in! This time £18.42 was raised and all the money from our collecting pot goes towards supporting vulnerable people in Swindon to have a voice.

🏃‍♂️👟🏃‍♀️We had a new visitor to Tea and Chat this week! Chloe from Active Place Partnership came to chat to the group about access to fitness, exercise and wellbeing. Chloe asked each person round the table and it seems that there are quite a few people already doing exercise but accessibility, confidence and independence can sometimes be a problem.

If you are interested in sport, exercise or just meeting other people there are tea and coffee groups run by Active Place Partnership at the Buckhurst community centre in Walcot on Tuesday mornings at 10:30, and Wednesday afternoons at 4:30 (note the Wednesday groups may stop around the end of October as it gets darker then restart in the spring)

Please come along and meet Chloe, Millie and the team!
A huge thank you to Lily and Darren for organising this. 😍🥰

SAM facilitates Tea and Chat at the Swindon Hub in town every Wednesday 11am-12pm ☕🧁
