It’s the Douglas Drive AGM on Tuesday 5th July 2016… Come and find out what we’ve been up to this last year!… All welcome to attend.

The centre’s ready, the urn is warming up nicely and we’re ready and raring to go for todays Stroke Awareness day @ DD… why not pop along and join us for a cuppa!

‘Make May Purple’ is the Stroke Association’s annual stroke awareness event and in support of this, Douglas Drive will be holding their own Stroke Awareness Day.

There will be an information table, blood pressure checks, refreshments and a raffle with all proceeds to the Douglas Drive Stroke group and The Stroke Association.

Clients, family, friends and supporters all welcome… hope you can join us!

Well what a fantastic day we had on Saturday and we couldn’t have wished for nicer weather!

It was great to see so many people pop along to support us and many commented on the lovely atmosphere which was really lovely to hear.

The total you helped us raise, including donations received, was an outstanding £538.41!

Thank you to everyone who came and supported us both on the day and by donating items for us to sell. We would also like to thank our staff and volunteers who gave up their time both Friday for setting up and on the Saturday… you’re all amazing!

It’s a hive of activity at DD HQ today getting ready for our Spring Fair on Saturday…
…Only 4 more sleeps to go!!… Be great to see you!

We will be holding our Spring Fair at Douglas Drive on Saturday 7th May 2016.

All through April we will be collecting donations for this event.

If you can spare a tin, packet or jar of food for the tombola or maybe a raffle prize, unwanted gift or bric a brac it would be very much appreciated. We will also be holding a cake stall so any cake donations will be gratefully received from the day before.

Please spread the word, share and encourage the local community to support this much needed and valued service.

Today sees the end of our St Patricks Week celebrations and what a week!…

Live musical entertainment from Malcolm on Monday and Ashley on Tuesday and Wednesday had us singing along to some great music and, as you can see, there was a little bit of dancing going on as well!…
