The St. Vincent de Paul thrift stores — closed end of 2017, the society itself living. As of November 2026, then: a suburb whose charity is a parish, a breakfast club, a disability neighborhood and two trustees — served, generously and at county scale, from a county seat it does not govern. The directory is dated, and will date: it states the sector as it stood in November 2026, and no later claim is made for it.
