Brent Samaritans have finally got a home they can call their own.

The charity has bought a building in Leopold Road, Harlesden, for £150,000 and is moving from its current base in Meyrick Road, Willesden, over the coming months.

Director Mycal told the branch's annual meeting: "By investing in the property in Leopold Road we are making a huge commitment to our community. The message to the people of Brent, is loud and clear: here we are and here we stay."
