We're offering free outdoor 'walk and talk' family therapy sessions to offer practical support and advice to help make family life a little happier during lockdown. Take up has been excellent, but limited sessions are available. Email us to find out more.

What a difference a couple of days can make! The week began with blue skies and a busy, socially distanced day of pond work, clearing and re-organising the greenhouses (with a very orderly new storage spot for pots in the salvage area).

Work on the pond continued this week with re-positioning of the liner. Leaves were raked and added to the leaf mulch and Frank kept everyone busy throwing his ball!

We received a wonderful new year gift! A South West Surrey Heroes Award from Jeremy Hunt for our contribution during the Covid pandemic. We're delighted and wanted to share the news with everyone involved in the project and say thank you!

After further review of the latest Government COVID guidelines and discussions with local referrers, group leaders and trustees we have agreed that we can keep our outdoor activities going to support the local community through this crisis.

After a very different Christmas we hope you are all healthy and ready to join us in making 2021 a happier new year.

As 2020 draws to a close here are a few of the magical memories our community has shared during this challenging and unpredictable year. We hope you enjoy them and have a safe and Happy Christmas.

A few words from Isobel about the yoga sessions; ‘We have completed our first couple of months of yoga in the beautiful Talking Shed on the acre. I would like to thank everybody who attended – you were all so brave for joining something new and for creating a brilliant couple of groups.’

On Monday Kelley & Kate hosted the final week of the current parenting course. It was lovely to hear how much the parents had enjoyed the sessions, learning little techniques and tips to help life at home be a little calmer.
