@KerryHanlon from the Corslet Place @coopuk in Currie is running a plant sale today in aid of @barnardos. Co-op and Barnardo’s are working to raise £5m to support young people to access basic needs like food, good mental wellbeing, and opportunities for their future.

Called in to Pauline @pollyh77 from WT Dunbar @CoopFuneralcare for her coffee morning in aid of @DementiaUK who provide specialist dementia support through their Admiral Nurse programme. Lovely to meet Fiona @flowery_celebrantfee and learn about her role as a funeral celebrant.
