GOOD NEWS WE ARE OPEN

Its been a very full on week, the builders finished doing all their work. Kitchen fitted, then in came the community and unpacked, The rubbish went out in a skip that turned out to be too small so another one came got filled and left. The the families came in over the weekend and did the gardening and finish all the odd jobs.

Monday at 8.00 the keys was handed over from the council to the trusties and we was officially open. The Swindon radio came so did the press.

We have a very successful open day. Alpha playgroup had people in so the children can look around in the morning and the final inspection in the afternoon. So they are now ready to open for sessions on Monday.
The rest of the centre open day went well with people able to come in and look around with positive comments.
