VE Day 80 Celebrations at the Woodvale Centre!

What a wonderful afternoon spent honouring 80 years since Victory in Europe Day! We came together at the Woodvale Centre with tea, sandwiches, sweet treats, and heartfelt remembrance.
Union Jacks filled the room, laughter was shared, and stories of resilience and pride echoed across generations. A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the event so special!

Gardening with ACS

๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป We are so so proud of our youth group, thank you all! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป
Yesterday they showed great determination with helping Ainsdale Civic Society in their newest community gardening project.
From digging up those pesky weeds to finding all sorts of treasures, they really put the effort into it.๐Ÿค—
If you are passing Ainsdale train station and see the volunteers hard at work be sure to let them know how much you appreciate their efforts.
Thank you ACS for being great hosts, hope to be back helping you all soon!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

Mindful Journeys – Chocolate Whirled

What a *sweet* day! ๐Ÿซโœจ
Our adults-only Chocolate Whirled trip today was an absolute blast! From rich, velvety tastings to learning the art of chocolate-making, it was a delicious experience from start to finish. ๐Ÿซ๐Ÿฌ Everyone indulged in their favourite treats, made some amazing new friends, and, of course, enjoyed a little break from the everyday hustle.
Thank you to everyone who joined usโ€”it wouldnโ€™t have been the same without you! Canโ€™t wait for our next adventure together. ๐Ÿ˜
