All Welcome - Lots of people came to join in the Party ! Our 8th Birthday Party !!
Today we raised the roof with Brian Lawless on guitar and our trusty band of singers. His laid back style and lovely choice of songs was a delight to behold.
We were graced by the presence of Douglas deLacy (Chair of the District Council) plus James (Club President) and Frances Watts who joined in the event with enthusiasm. They jointly cut the lovely birthday cake (thank you to Eileen). James then surprised Basil with a Paul Harris Fellowship certificate and pin as an acknowledgement for all his hard work over all the years of the Memory Cafe that has so contributed to its success.
A Great Event all round !

A Memory-Cafe is where there is a warm welcome for people with dementia or other problems associated memory loss (and their families / carers), who's new memories may be partial and confusing. The aim is to evoke old memories that are complete and comfortable through, for example, refreshments in china cups, home made cakes, photos and documents from past years, songs and poems and informal talks.
Parking and disabled access easy. No charge.
See you next month Friday 5 April 2019 - Eastertide & Spring !
