Neglect (and acts of omission)
Self-neglect

A really hard-working group from Foundation Learning at Highlands College today. Despite the cold, they happily cleared some bracken & brambles & arrived with mince pies & gifted two hedgehog boxes to the pond project. Thank you!
Thank you LibertyBus for hosting our annual "bus station takeover" with lots of Christmas songs. Thank you to the fab duo Matt & Lauren for leading us in song & to States of Jersey Police for joining in the fun.
