REUSE AND THRIVE
Come and see our wide selection of Gala fancy dress costumes and accessories. We have a variety to suit most ages.
Our Community Shop in East Calder is open every Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 10-2pm. We have bric a brac (glasses, crockery, ornaments, pictures) and are well stocked with clothes, toys, jigsaws and books. We also have the “free boxes” outside or in on a wet day which are fun to rummage.
We welcome any donations but do not have the room for dvds, cds and hard back books, also no electrical items please. Do you fancy volunteering for a 2 hour shift on one of our days? You need not have had any experience and you will be trained. Ask when you are next in the shop.

COMMUNITY LISTENING PROJECT
COVID has isolated so many of us. There is a new and exciting project called the KNEC Community Listening Project which will aim to help us get out of isolation, mix with people in a safe environment and listen to each other as we adjust to life again with less restrictions.
Our first project venture is to run the KoNECt Cafe. This will start on Monday February 21 from 1-3pm in East Calder Church Hall. Please pop along for a cuppa and some company. It will run weekly from then. All Welcome.
FORGET ME NOT CAFE
If you or a family member has had a diagnosis of dementia or memory issues then please join us at the café for an informal and friendly social group with a cuppa and blether.
Please note that due to current circumstances, booking is essential.
The cafe opens on the last Thursday of every month from 10-12noon in East Calder Church Hall. Please contact Alzheimer Scotland on 01506 533108 to book.
