Para 1.17 and 1.19 |
1 Members are welcomed to the group and introduced to other members, encouraging them to make new friends. 2 The group meets in the local sports & social club, which has every facility needed for the members, who may have a range of disabilities and requirements. 3 Individuals are given specific responsibilities during the day, commensurate with their abilities. This instils confidence in them individually. Ie one member does not handle money but is very proud to take responsibility for the raffle, including the money. Her confidence has improved immensely. Some embers have even now gained sufficient confidence to give short talk about themselves to the group. 4 Drinks are provided on arrival and throughout the day. They have |
| biscuits in the morning, cake in the afternoon. At lunchtime they are given a choice of 2-course meals, which are freshly prepared on the day. 5 Each week some form of informal activity takes place, bingo being the most popular. Speakers come in to talk to them, they also have opportunity to do gentle exercise and other relaxation techniques. 6 Members come from a radius of 10 miles, which transport being provided for them. 7 Members present with a range of differing requirements and disabilities. We have a number with Dementia and other mental health issues, a number with physical disabilities and some who simply want emotional support and an escape from isolation. 8 We have been able to provide one-to- one support for those who have been bereaved. |
