One of the local organisations that we are please to be associated with is The Nest Community. It is a volunteer-run, not-for-profit organisation created to develop and maintain a community for the purposes of reducing social isolation, to provide advocacy, education and harm prevention strategies for women and children.
They have a lot of activities on in September, so check them out and see if there is something that you might like to be involved with
