Mary’s 10th Anniversary

2019 marks our 10th anniversary. The past ten years has been a decade of growth and development for the organisation in all areas of our work. We have had a number of community events to mark this milestone and we want to continue celebrating by publishing as many stories of individual lives as we can of the people we worked with.

Please help us celebrate this momentous milestone by sharing your Mary's stories and memories by emailing [email protected].
