May Update

Hello again.


It's been a while since we started this blog and we have been very busy.  Sorry there haven't been any new posts lately.


It's way past time we let you know what is happening so this is a short post to keep you up to date.


We have sold some items on eBay recently including a very nice box set of the original version of Jeff Wayne's the War of The Worlds.  This had been in the centre for a long time but we have had no equipment to play it on (it is a special SACD set that needs a special type of player).  We decided to sell it and use the money to get something that would be used by our service user.  A very generous gentleman paid £30.00 for the set.  This will be put to good use very soon.  Thank you for your purchase sir.


The other item was an old Panasonic touch screen frame to make a 42" TV into a touch screen when connected to a PC.  We had updated this to a newer version to use on a new laptop.  Again a very generous person paid a very welcome £100.00.  Fantastic.


In other areas, we are busy making up baskets of sweets that we place in local offices for the workers there to buy.  This is a good way of raising a nice flow of income.  We are grateful for all the support that everyone is giving us.


Some of the groups in the centre are busy making items to sell from the centre and which may also be put up for sale on eBay.  We will keep you informed of any new items we have for sale as soon as we have them ready.


Thanks again for all your support.  The people who use our centre will benefit from any money contributed by you.  All the money is used to help the centre provide for our service users.
