Most importantly everyone made new friends ๐ฌ๐ญ
It was trustee Heatherโs birthday ๐๐ so we had an afternoon of party games and prizes ๐๐ with each bubble. Everyone made their own party food ๐ฅฏ๐ง๐ฝ๐ฅ with Gemma to enjoy later (some of the combinations they created required a strong constitution ๐คฃ). We had birthday cupcakes and cake lollies in SYCP colours from Mimi's Bakes in Sacriston. We arranged for birthday ice creams๐ฆfrom Kings Cafe Ice Cream Vans & Catering and everyone received a birthday party thank you gift bag ๐ to take home.
