Group Price Changes
Our costs have been increasing recently, including rent and staff wages. For us to be able to keep doing what we do, we have decided to increase the price of our group sessions from £4 to £5. We have not taken this decision lightly, as we appreciate that the cost of everything may be rising for you as well. As always, we aim to offer great value for money, including free clothes and other items from our Swap Shop shelves, low-cost food from our Community Cupboard, one-to-one mentoring from our staff team and our programme of Social Butterflies activities with no additional charge for our team’s support. The increase will start from January 2025.
Advance Payment
We are starting a monthly advance payment system for our weekly groups, starting from January. We hope that this will simplify making payments as well as encourage regular attendance, which we promote as beneficial to our members’ mental health. Most of our groups are fully-booked on paper, but attendance is not always high. We have people waiting to join our groups and feel it is unfair to tell them the groups are full when attendance is low.
