Project complete10 people benefitted from the funding. Without the PB funding we would not have been able to take a room let at Woodlands Centre, this meabt we coukd also use the funding to pay specialists eg, Nutritionists, Alternative Health Practitioners, Yoga Instructor and to tryCold Water /Sauna Therapy which we felt benefited our physical and mental health. Group members who were able to take part in the activities, all said they have benefitted from the activities and of the support of each other. Most said they would not have had the finance or support as a group to try the activities we are able to offer as a result of PB funding.
