@blueybaloo Hi unfortunately not we have tried different avenues but we have reached the end of the road and can no longer meet the funding shortfall that we have been plugging for several years.

Thanks to everyone for their tweets of support and kind wishes. We are very sad to be closing, we have happy memories of playing with kids and families all over the city. Unfortunately we have become a casualty of the economic times we live in, like many other small charities 😢

We’re in Leeds today at @CoopWest_Point as part of their celebrations that collectively, £19m has been raised for local causes this year!

We’re delighted that the local city centre stores have raised £6046 for Fletcher’s Fund! Great to see Anna from @leedsplaynet too!

@MumFullofDreams @Child_Leeds Hi,

We're not open on Fridays, the next time we will be open at St Johns Centre is Weds and Thurs 11.00 till 1.00pm. Thanks

@EmmaMBearman @LeedsMarkets We did glow in the dark slime which worked really well. Looks quite boring in the light but all the children were suitably impressed when we went into the store room and switched the lights off. I will put some picks on next week so you can see.
