MP Theresa May visits Yeldall Manor and learns more about its work during the covid lockdowns

MAIDENHEAD MP Theresa May visited a Hare Hatch-based addiction therapy centre to learn more about its work.

She had been due to visit Yeldall Manor in March 2020, but the first covid lockdown prevented her from doing so.

During her visit, she received updates on how the charity had coped, its fundraising and how residents have fared.

The centre helps men who have problems with drugs or alcohol to conquer their addictions and find a new way of life.

Mrs May met former resident Dave who is now a professional photographer, visited Yeldall’s prayer garden, and chatted with Sacha, another former resident who was instrumental in creating the space in a disused corner of the estate.

After the visit, Mrs May said: “I was pleased to be able to visit Yeldall Manor to discuss the excellent work they do in supporting people who have been affected by addiction.
