Jul 2014 Girton Memory Cafe CB3 0PD

Fri, Jul 4th 2014 at 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

The Memory Cafe welcomes All. A warm welcome for people with dementia or other problems associated memory loss (and their families / carers). Our forty-first event. Theme - Summer Holidays and Folk Songs


The theme this month is hot sunny summer holidays - buckets and spades, ice creams and paddling!

We had a scorchingly sunny day today - so bright and colourful.  Bunting and buckets & spades helped set the scene.  Jerry Harrison brought his guitar and delighted the room with some lovely old songs like Flaunders and Swann's 'Hippopotamus Song' and 'Messing about on the River'.  Ginger cakes, Battenberg Cake and chocolate slices were all very popular. The Singing troupe sang several salty songs and everyone was in good voice, joining in with the actions with gusto. 

It was Johns Birthday this week (87!) and it made him smile when we sang him Happy Birthday.

Many thanks to all our helpers!

See you next month on Friday 1st August 2014.

Do come along and have some fun!

Open 10.00am - 12.00pm on the first Friday morning of each month.

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.
