Dec 2023
That special day is nearly here. The move to The Church has gone so smoothly and we are more than delighted. Although we still have the front room to finish, the work is moving on at a pace. We are looking to add an upgraded sensory room in the 2024 once funds allow.
I am sure that, those of you who have visited the building will have been as delighted as we are with the new spacious premises, it’s bright and airy and welcoming feel; and we look forward to many, many happy years here.
Pop in and see us if you are passing S63 6RD Wath upon Dearne, Princess Street, you can’t miss us.

The excitement was almost too much to bear as everyone started to arrive at The Church for our opening session.
Social Eyes and The Banned braved the cold yesterday to support the fund raiser for Rotherham Hospice up at Wickersley. See the photos further down.
If you missed the fund raiser due to the weather why not join them for one of their Light Up A Life memorial services:
Christmas is a time for family and friends but it can be hard if somebody you love is no longer with us.
Rotherham Hospice invites you to remember your loved one and join us at Light Up A Life 2023.
Your loved ones do not have to have been cared for by Rotherham Hospice to come and celebrate their life. All are welcome.
Look at the fun [and Father Christmas] you missed.
