TWO MORE SLEEPS!! 🥳🥳
Local small business owner Kim, who operates the remarkable Soulzen Room has been an incredible mentor, guiding our youth through mindfulness and meditation sessions at the center for the past year. We are very grateful for Kim as she has also come on board as a sponsor for our Youth Week Event!
Kim's dedication to our community is truly inspiring, and we're immensely grateful for her continued support.
Be sure to pop in and have a chat with Kim about her beautiful services and let the kiddies get their imaginations firing with her "Creating with Clay" activity.
