VASA!!

Hi everyone - ever heard of VASA - it means Voluntary Action Stratford on Avon District. They are basically the hub of the volunteer network for Stratford District and what a fantastic job they do. They provide volunteer drivers to take people to hospital and to day care centres. They operate a wheelchair loan scheme. They provide volunteers for the Stratford Hospital coffee shop and have just recently set up a volunteer service to tidy up gardens and provide gardening help to the elderly. What a great organisation. Visited The Childrens Centre this evening on Drayton Avenue. Another great set up. The things I have learnt since becoming a County Councillor! If any of you Mums and Dads have any issues around parenting or simply want to meet other parents this is the place to go. The door is always open. Pop in from 9.30 - 4.30 and have a cuppa - great atmosphere and really welcoming. I so wish this kind of establishment was available when my kids were little. Will be in touch. Kate
