What a brilliant opening night yesterday for Our Life Stories in Nottingham! ✨

Nottingham Contemporary was buzzing with so many familiar faces, and we were even joined by the fantastic United Voices choir! Such a special way to kick things off.

There was plenty of fun (and even some friendly competition!) at Limmer Lane’s recent games day 🎲

Some of the people we support got together to enjoy homemade games, lovingly built by one of our tenants’ parents, along with some great food and even better company.
