Donate or Fundraise
What we need money for
All activities and services provided outside our core services, such as those which make up the Wellbeing Programme, Counselling Service, etc. rely upon donations, grants, and the fundraising efforts of our local Charity shops, and Centre staff and volunteers. To sustain the current level of service requires us to raise in the region of £40,000 per annum. A donation of £5.00 will pay for our members to enjoy two sessions of group music making or help to support our counselling service costs.
Postal donations
You can make a regular or one off donation by completing the printable form attached ( see PDF ) and sending it with your donation to;
