    Hi guys,

    Just to update you… we’ve opened and it’s really exciting!

    I’ve received a photocopier, reams of recycled paper(!), wall paint, printers. Generally still need stationery of all types and donations of all kinds. If you have anything I might need or just want to send me a love letter you can do so on email quiet.chirps@gmail.com
