We are so grateful to Croeso Choir for choosing to fundraise for SASS at their upcoming event. This special evening of music will not only be a wonderful celebration of community but also a tribute to Richard Powell, a long term member of the choir who sadly passed away recently

At our Friday drop-in, our talented attendees and volunteers have been working together on a collaborative patchwork quilt. Everyone joins in, creating their own hexagonal pieces, and then they fit them together like a big puzzle. We have some excellent seamstresses!

Thank you @AsylumMatters for shedding light on our work and the challenges faced. Too many sanctuary seekers are struggling to access basic necessities.
