Today we had a great Friendship Group session at Shrewsbury House. Tony gave us another wonderful all-singing-and-dancing hour. The group singing was loud – so Tony, we think you are going to need some amplification. Lovely to see the ladies in the wheelchairs joining-in.

I blurred some faces in the picture to ensure privacy – and sorry to those whom I couldn’t squeeze in.

Good to see Kathy and Kim return. Amazing to see Kathy dance the afternoon away, even with a bad back.

32 Friends came today, plus all our lovely volunteers. Welcome to Marie, our newest team member, on her first visit – hopefully the first of many. Joan was busy elsewhere, so she volunteered to sharpen all the pencils this evening!

Thanks to Matthew for the tasty choice of food in the cafe, I certainly enjoyed my sandwich and coffee.

Hope to see you all in two weeks.

I plan to run another Dementia Friends session on 18th April. The session will help you learn more about what it is like to live with dementia and turn that understanding into action. If you are interested in coming along please e-mail me on reflectionsgreenwich@gmail.com.

Bingo arrives!

Thanks to Caroline for donating the state-of-the-art Bingo equipment and doing the calling at today’s session. Thanks also to David for testing out our cut-down version of a Beetle Drive (all Beetle, no Drive).

Another great turn-out today. We welcomed three new friends to the group and had 25 friends in total. There were seven members of the Reflections team to keep things moving.
