We were lucky enough to receive funding linked to the Digital Inclusion Initiative and the tablets and laptops we bought are in daily use - as you can see in the picture! Today, we took part in the Liverpool City Region's DII Network meeting. It is always informative and gives great support on improving digital knowledge and skills in the community. We'll definitely be looking into some of the offers from Virgin Media O2 and Barclays UK.

We had an art focused day to commemorate Remembrance Day, observing the 2 minutes silence and creating themed art work. Clients used a variety of skills in their work and were really proud of how their pictures turned out. Royal British Legion

We were excited to be invited to the VIP Tour of the new Grangeway Co-op store. The store looks fantastic and will be well used by the community. Well done and congratulations to Taylor and her team!!! It was great to meet up with Stuart, our Member Activator, and share some photos of activities funded by our Co-op Local Community Fund donation. Adam even got to do some VIP shopping! Looking forward to working with the team in future! Co-op

Our Wednesday group designed their own board game with a cricket theme. They researched a variety of sports games before deciding on how they wanted to create theirs. They used photos of themselves and celebrities, to make personalised player tokens. We enjoyed playing the games with a friend, then giving feedback on the game.

Thursday's clients did some Autumn art work. They chose a city and did a silhouette skyline of it, painted an autumn sky and used some words they chose that they thought described Autumn. We're posting today as with how cold it is, it feels like Winter is going to be here early 🥶.
