What You're Saying

When we were looking for a new home for our talking newspaper, due to the Coronavirus pandemic, we were so grateful to the Lamp of Lothian, who offered us the use of a space in the Poldrate Granary, free of charge. We are able to record, copy and distribute our weekly news from there and also hold meetings by arrangement. Thank you, Lamp of Lothian!
