Maggie inspired and enabled the transformation of countless lives in Bristol & beyond through her groundbreaking work with BDP.
March 10th is the anniversary of BDP opening its doors 37 years ago, a testimony to Maggie’s courage and vision. We look forward to celebrating her legacy with you.
What to expect
The event will last approximately an hour and will be full of memories, celebration and song. Maggie loved colour and music, and there will be both.

We will be joining together afterwards with free tea and cake in the on-site cafe.
