As the Scottish Government starts to ease restrictions on shops and business opening again, we are not currently in a position to reopen the Centre to the public.
Once we have assessed the requirements for social distancing and put in place the necessary equipment to keep both our staff and members of the public safe, we will update this website, to advise everyone.
Thank you for your patience and we look forward in the future to welcoming you back.
Covid-19 Virus Update
Due to the current situation regarding the Covid-19 Virus, we are currently unable to fulfill online orders of the Society’s products.
If you have recently placed an order online, we will do our best to complete your order as soon as possible, however our volunteers are mostly in the “at risk” category for this virus.
When it is safe for our volunteers to resume safe working, we will send your products as soon as possible. We hope you will bear with us during these uncertain times.
Thank you.
The Annual General Meeting for the Society, due to take place on Wednesday 25th March 2020, will be postponed, until later in the year.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused, but we are sure you will understand the decision that has been taken, in the light of the current situation.
We will advise by Social Media and the Website, when the meeting will be rescheduled.
