Sandstone is sorry to announce that the Volunteering event planned for Easter 2024 (March 25th to April 1st) has been cancelled.

We have decided to postpone this event to later in 2024 or early 2025 . We believe that Easter is not a suitable time to run this programme as it has caused confusion, with many of our supporters, that we are holding a public event, namely the Easter Festival, as we have run in the past. We have announced previously that we will not be holding any public events during 2024 as we need to update a number of our facilities at Sandstone so running the Volunteer event would be inappropriate.

May we thank you in advance for your understanding on this matter.
