Welcome to the Sunshine and Smiles weekly newsletter! This is where you will find all our upcoming events and news.
Given the current government guidance regarding social distancing and non-essential social gatherings we have taken the very difficult decision to temporarily suspend all our groups, face to face sessions, activities and to close 21 Co. Shop & Café.
This decision has not been made lightly and we know it has implications for many people.
We are still available by telephone and email for advice, support and signposting – please don’t hesitate to get in touch at any time:
Telephone: 07725041601
Email: hello@sunshineandsmiles.org.uk
Some of our sessions are now available online. Please see the events calendar on our website to see what's on.
