Some of our Make Lunch mums went along to the last Peaced Together course. Here's what one of them said:
"At first I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I quickly settled in and really looked forward to going each week. It was lovely being part of a small group of women, and the relaxed atmosphere made it easy to chat, laugh and get to know each other. I really enjoyed the craft side and was surprised by what I was able to make... I also enjoyed the different themes and having time to think and reflect without feeling pressured to share anything I didn’t want to. I’m really glad I took part."

And guess who's running it? Our own lovely Alex and her amazing friend Karen.

The next one starts on Friday 2nd October at Rugby CLC on Lawford Road. But places are limited! Sign up asap!

The big clear up and clean up at the end of our summer sessions is mostly done. Crunching a few numbers - it looks like the kitchen teams served around 350 meals this summer!

What does Make Lunch really cost?

Today some of our team arrived early to prepare for our session. 144 sausages were cooked, spuds were peeled for proper mash, fruit crumbles were made from scratch... yummy! And nothing goes to waste!

Crafts and activities were planned and prepared weeks ago and have really been fabulous this summer. Sports and games and bubbles and chalk have been such fun!

A dozen or so team members give up their time (with the support of their families) to be there. Some great conversations went on around the tables. But the planning started months ago. Not to mention shopping and admin and team training and collaborating and working out funding and gathering resources...

A huge thank you to each team member - you are all truly wonderful and your motivation is genuinely from the heart.

Grand finale on Thursday for this summer! Preparations are under way right now!
