TWO rooms in the FE Centre in Vigo Road received a very welcome makeover as a result of the Andover Advertiser's Make a Difference campaign.

Earlier this year the centre, which is the 16 to 19-year-old section of Icknield School and is based in a bungalow in Vigo Road, made a heartfelt plea for help in redorating some of their rooms.

The centre has 17 students with either severe learning difficulties or profound and multiple learning difficulties. They are all studying independent life skills to help them integrate better into the community.

When they saw the plea, members of Andover Baptist Church got together and decided to help out as part of their campaign to reach out into the community to help others.
