Thank You to the West Midlands Fire Service

A big thank you to the Fire Service for dropping by our monthly Tea & Toast session.

Although it was only a flying visit, our members always enjoy the informative chats and valuable advice that the team shares. It's a great opportunity to ask questions, learn something new, and connect with our local emergency services.

Thank you for taking the time to visit us. We look forward to seeing you again soon! ☕🍞😊

🍃 Nature Walk at Oak House 🍃

Join us on Monday 7 September at 1:30pm for a relaxing afternoon at Oak House.

Enjoy a peaceful session in the gardens, taking time to listen to the sounds of nature and unwind. We will also experience the soothing sounds of meditation and sound bath instruments.

As part of the event, we will be planting a blackcurrant bush to commemorate the project and celebrate the wonderful journey we've shared together.

Let us know you're coming... you can either meet at the SVI offices at 1.30 or at the Oak House gates at 2pm.

We would like to say a huge thank you to Utilita for their continued support of SVI. Every month, they kindly donate loaves of bread for our Tea & Toast sessions. Their generosity helps us to keep our members fed, happy and enjoying a good cuppa and chat.
