Centrepoint Hamper Appeal
Here are the details of the Centrepoint Christmas Hamper Appeal, including donation ideas and drop-off points. Reading the stories of families in need was heart-wrenching, and choosing just one to support was even harder. This incredible charity does so much for our community.

Reconnect @ Café Connect
At the end of every month, the day before payday, we host reconnect at Café Connect, where you can come along and have a free tea or coffee and pastry between 8.30 & 9.30am.
Last week, it was wonderful to see so many staff chatting, enjoying a pastry and a drink, smiling, and reconnecting. It’s amazing how such a small gesture can have such a positive impact on staff morale.
