Leeanna’s Wish Friday Socials are made possible thanks to the support of Hertfordshire Community Foundation #fundedbyHCF

Since June 2022, Leeannas Wish has hosted a community coffee and cake morning. In September 2022 following popular demand, we introduced the bacon roll. We are community centred and meet every Tuesday 10am-12pm at the Cottonmill Community & Cycling Centre. Conversation, games and basic technical support are all on hand. This project is made possible thanks to the support of Hertfordshire Community Foundation.

On 24th November Leeanna’s Wish, in collaboration with The Collective Art Gallery, are delighted to unapologetically present ‘This Is Us’ - a new and exciting art exhibition featuring the work of 30 young people aged 10 – 18 that live in and around St Albans. Our young people worked on their art pieces during Saturday club, and we will showcase the range of mixed media for one week only. This project is made possible thanks to the support of Aisha Adi at Collective Art Gallery / Art Project Space, 18 Holywell Hill, St Albans.
