Sadly this week we had some antisocial behaviour again at the centre. Some youths gathered and climbed onto the roof & it appears that a piece of parapet was thrown onto one of our commemorative benches - breaking the back of the bench. If there is anyone in the community who could restore the bench for us please? We would love some help please, as these benches are so well used at Greyfriars. Thank you!
