Happy National Volunteers Week!
I’m always so grateful for the help from all the volunteers that make what we do in the Red Cross shops possible.
Here at Five Cross Roads we are looking for more help, can you spare 3-4 hours on a regular basis?
Come on in and have a chat to Leanne or Carolyne and to get started!

We are open 9-4.30pm Monday to Friday
9-4 on Saturdays

The Medieval Gardens will open next year at Hamilton Gardens, with much of the work already done.
