He might not wear a cape or un**es on the outside but that doesn't stop our Neil being Superman in our eyes!
Neil recently took part in the Liverpool to Chester return (!) bike race and collected a whopping £550 in sponsorship for our groups! 🤩🤩🤩 What an absolute superstar!
We will put the money towards all the boring but essential things that grants don't cover, such as insurance!
Thank you Neil, you smashed it!

We had a lovely time at WelcomeMe today.
There was the choice of either making a bicycle greetings card (picture in comments as Facebook won't let us upload mixed media grrr) or exercising our brains with a game of countdown.
Whatever choice was made, we all had a brilliant afternoon

Phew! What a scorcher 🌞
What else could we have done today except make fans, sup chilled juice and have a jolly good natter about anything that came to mind.
Sometimes it's the simple things that bring the most pleasure.

This week was all about coordination and working as a team.
We started off aiming to get the coloured balls on the matching segment of the parachute. Then we all worked together to roll a ball around the edge.
Next up was bouncing balls into the pots. Sounds easy but the balls seemed to have a mind of their own 😂
(Videos are in the comments)

There was plenty of laughter today.

We've been proper adventures this week! We took advantage of the weather to take a short stroll round the path by the Hooton Village Memorial Hall . Spending time looking at plants, looking them up to find out names and what uses they have as well as listening to the many birds was very peaceful.
Do you have memory difficulties? Fancy hanging out with great people once per week? Then contact Caroline on 07407620943 info@retainwellbeing.co.uk and she will tell you all about it.

Our fantastic volunteer Neil is pulling up his big boy cycling pants and riding the Liverpool to Chester return bike race! 52 miles! 😱 And he's doing it for us 🥳. If you would like to sponsor our very own Sporting Hero please follow the link in the picture or you can message and we can give you our bank details, or good old cash also works!
Good luck Neil!! 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🚴🏻🚴🏻🚴🏻
