Announcing the date for our summer day out to Chester. We have kept the cost of a place on the coach trip really low for our WGN Members thanks to being a Co-op Community Fund Cause this year. If you’re a Co-op Member, choosing us as your Local Cause will help us to provide a free autumn trip for WGN Members to enjoy.
WGN Members and their friends enjoyed a fantastic ‘Foodwise Cooking Workshop’ led by Blossom at our Tuesday Coffee Morning at Wythenshawe Football Club.The flavoursome and simple-to-make spinach and chickpea curry was rustled up from scratch by a member of the Blossom team. Everyone had a chance to sample it, and they all gave it the thumbs up! We’ve shared the recipe in the Newsletter!
