“A great time was had by all (at the Gledcliffe Party); the spread of food was delicious. Thank you to the dedicated staff who helped organise everything, including the person who came in on their day off with cakes. One of the individuals mentioned they had never sung so joyfully, and everyone was smiling and having a lovely time.”Family member of a person we support
