Well, we have had our coffee morning! Lots of people came and munched their way through many different types of cakes! They definitely went home heavier than when they came! It was wonderful to share with these visiters about the work of NLT and to see that they were genuinely interested. Thank you to everyone who came and made the morning such a lovely experience for those of us who work in the office and, of course, for all your donations.

Last year, we had 5 runners representing NLT in the Vitality run.  It was very exciting seeing our runners whiz past to the finishing line. We have bought 10 places for 2019 (gulp)!  We already have 5 runners but it would be great to be able to fill in the next five places. Would you like to be part of Team NLT? Send an email to info@nlt.org.uk and put your name down. Do support us and help raise some much needed funds for NLT. Thank you.
