Today is our annual trip to Largs and it's all hands on deck for the team as we support members to enjoy a fantastic day out by the seaside! 🚍🏖️🍦

As a result, there may be a slight delay in responses from our Community Engagement Leads throughout the day. We will get back to everyone as soon as possible.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. We hope everyone joining us has an amazing day! 💙
