Sincerest thanks to Heaton Garden Services, who donated these lovely planters so that our Community Village of Inclusion tenants can create a space for mindful reflection in the privacy of their courtyard. We appreciate your belief and support ❤️ @WiganCouncil

Visitors to our weekly Veterans' Brunch observed a two-minute silence today in recognition of #VJDay80 "Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning. We will remember them."
