But you don’t need to take our word for it

“I had, quite literally, a whale of a time!”

Non-urgent advice: When?

Saturday 12th December. As with previous years this is a ‘Drop In’ so you can come along at any time from Noon to Midnight that suits you! We know you’re all busy festive people, so you can fit it around other events or your Christmas shopping.

Non-urgent advice: Where?

Our flat! Flat 51 Park Central, Bow Quarter, E3 2US.
The closest tube station is Bow Road (District and Hammersmith & City lines, one stop from Mile End on Central Line) and we are also close to Bow Church DLR, which is just two stops from Stratford. You enter Bow Quarter from Fairfield Road and then use google maps to find our building, or ask the concierge, or walk around looking lost and ask a neighbour.
