Please note
1) The Mela is taking place at Moor Park- it’s incorrectly listed as the Flag Market on the Visit Preston website. We have brought this to the attention of the MELA organisers 

2) The film night at UCLAN on Wednesday 21st June commences at 6:30pm and because of logistical issues we will be showing Human Flow

3) The guided walk for Sanctuary Seekers will take place on Monday 3rd July 11:30-1pm followed by refreshments.

4) Both the Salvation Army and Jeff Morgan have confirmed the date and venue for the workshop on An Introduction to Trauma Informed Practice as 12:30 to 3pm on Thursday 21st September at the Salvation Army base on Harrington Street PReston 

Apologies for any inconvenience and confusion
