No-one could hide how much they loved being back at our Parkhead Resource Centre in Ashington as the doors were finally able to open again after lockdown.
Imaginative and engaging Zoom sessions had kept everyone going when they were unable to meet in person, but being back together in person was definitely an occasion to celebrate.
Staff had pulled out all the stops to give everyone a warm welcome with balloons and bubbly at the entrance, but it was the beaming smiles that made everyone’s day.
“I’m so excited to back and I loved the bubbly,” said Wayne; “It’s just champion!” added Mark.
But it wasn’t just the service users who were full of the joys of spring now that Parkhead has re-opened. “It feels amazing to be back!” said Parkhead Manager, Claire.
“ It’s hard to imagine just how happy it has made us to be back,” added Support Worker, Simon.
