CHA CHA AND CHAT
We've got something new at St Hugh's, every Thursday at 1pm from 13th June:
BOOGIE WITH TAN
We've got a new older adults exercise class every Tuesday at St Hugh's from 11.45am to 12.45pm. Your first session is free and £5 thereafter. Boogie to the sounds of the 60's and 70's while getting fit and having fun. Just turn up or call Tan on 07855 886693.
OUR WARM SPACE
Every Wednesday we offer you a Warm Space to meet new friends and neighbours in the comfort and warmth of The St Hugh's Centre. Perhaps you are feeling a bit lonely or are struggling to heat your home or buy food. Perhaps you would just like to sit and chat with local people or read the paper. Our Warm Space offers breakfast (9am to 10.30am) and lunch (12noon to 1pm) and is open from 9am for 1pm for snacks and warm drinks on a free or pay-as-you-feel basis. Breakfast is toasted teacakes, crumpets and warm drinks and lunch is usually soup and a roll followed by cake and biscuits.
FOOD BANK
St Hugh's operates a small food bank for residents of the Baildon community. We can help if you are unable to feed yourself and/or your family. It may be issues with debt, an unexpected bill, problems with benefits or loss of employment. Call us on 07421 328187 if you need to claim a 3-day food parcel. You may need to leave a message but we will ring you back to arrange a collection time (collections take place on Wednesday of each week). We will just need to know why you find yourself in food crisis and ensure you are eligible to claim.
