Travel to Gracehill (www.gracehillvillage.org)

Gracehill is just under 2 miles from Ballymena in a rural setting so travel by  car is probably easiest .

I have checked Translink Journey planner and it appears to take roughly over an hour via bus to Ballymena and then a second bus to Gracehill plus  short walk. However I can’t see a service listed for 11June but I will leave it to individuals wishing to use public transport to check this out further

If interested please contact Margaret by Friday 6 June as per email address above 

Again I hope this provides sufficient detail but if further queries please get in touch
