i would like to give an acknowledgement to the two men from the wellspring who dont get the recognition they warrant. Bryn , Steve. apart from Jonathan you keep this place going and even if we dont show it we know you do. keep up the good work lads.

I used your Newsletter in our Church magazine at Prestbury Methodists to keep people informed who support Wellspring via Harvest gifts. I also copied your photo of the new building to help publicise the work. Many thanks.

First of all let me say Congratulations on your move. The Wellspring's new home looks fantastic.
I am looking to do some fund raising and to make the young people I work with aware of your service too.
We hope to grow some fresh vegatables in our Garden Project so hopefully with some love and care we can provide some hearty food for you.
I wish you all well. Trudi

Johnathon and Abdul.

"Respect for the help and advice" As you both are aware i have been homeless now for 5 months,sleeping on the streets and that.Hopefully with your support recently with Stonham Housing i am soon hoping for a room in one of the shared houses( before crimbo would be great)as you are aware i am next on the list(BUZZIN) Thanks for the blankets,hot drinks,food and showers when needed without it and all your support it would make my situation more daunting.


Big up to ya both

I had no idea that Brian was blind despite the fact that we have communicated by internet for some time now, over his recent move to France. What a guy. I shall do all in my powers this end, to help his project and to spur him, and his friend, on.
Good on you, Bri !!
