💜 Melissa’s Corner 💜

We have created a special area in our new premises in loving memory of my sister, Melissa Mulligan.

Melissa had a caring heart and a passion for helping others, especially children and those needing extra support. She believed in kindness, inclusion and making everyone feel valued.

This corner is a place for members to relax, chat or enjoy a quiet moment, while keeping Melissa’s memory close and remembering the love and kindness she shared.

Having this space dedicated to Melissa makes our new premises even more special.

Forever loved, forever missed, and always part of our Circle of Friends. 💜
