Weekly News - 8th June 2023

Welcome to our weekly newsletter! 

I hope everyone enjoyed a sunny half term. It's a busy week ahead for all of our groups. 

We have Smilers with Made with Music and Leeds Conservatoire (ages 8-18), Sunflowers (ages 2-8) with Made with Music, Family Swim Sessions, Football (ages 4-16), Sunbeams (ages 0-4), Makaton for babies and families, Early Development (Caterpillars and Tadpoles), Online Yoga (ages 16+), Cricket (ages 12-25) and Online Karaoke (ages 10+). 

Please note the earlier time for the Smilers session which is part of the project run by Made with Music and Leeds Conservatoire. 

Ruth's Yellow Speech and Language groups have been postponed until 19th June. 

We are recruiting, both for volunteers at our shop and cafe 21 Co., and for trustees of Sunshine & Smiles, specifically those with experience or interest in finance. 

As always we are available by telephone and email for advice, support and signposting – please don’t hesitate to get in touch at any time.
