Activities & Events At Who Cares House
Here at Who Cares House we run both ongoing, short term and one off activities and events. These may include things like workshops, short courses, get togethers or community fun days. When and what we run will vary. But we will always give the community notice of any changes or new events by advertising them here on our website, posting them on our Facebook page and by putting ads in the Clarion.
