OUR EVENING WITH THE WOMEN'S INSTITUTE

Katie and I were invited to Frome WI at Trudoxhill to do a presentation about what we do at our work place. We explained what we do as a group and a  little about the different things we've done at different events, such as performing at the Bardic Chair storytelling competition.

We told the story of Awongalema, it went very very well. We enjoyed the night, Katie and I weren't nervous.

Katie and I did a presentation about our lives and what we've done and what we have become at the end of it all. 

The ladies from the WI thought Katie and I told the Awongalema story very well and loved it. They asked us if they could support the work we do.

  

Afternoon out to see 'Up down man' at Salisbury

We had a day trip out to Salisbury play house to see  a  play  called " Up down   man."

    Matty  was a young man with downs syndrome and he liked music and all he wanted out of life was a boyfriend  not a girlfriend. The story was   very good and it was about a family that didn’t believe that Matty  had  a life  of his own.  His family and Matty  were really missing their mum who was  no longer there with them  any more.  They all miss her very much. But he did love his dancing and we all thought he was very good, the performance he did was  really well done.

       All the characters did very well with their role, we felt  it reflected on our lives and  made us all think of our families and how it made us feel  about   his character, we understood the way that he was feeling as well.

   The  trip was possible to go on because we had a donation from the Lions club of Frome  that enabled us to go and watch up down man at Salisbury.

We are very grateful for their support and we all really enjoyed it.   Katie and Clemma 

Work Skills film

Hi from Work Skills  

We all attend Work Skills group on a Wednesday all day. The work skills group has been doing filming about things like where they live and other things what they get up to in their spare time and what their favourite hobbies are. It is really great because it makes us feel like actors and actress now doing the filming. We are all happy about doing the filming because it has encouraged me now and we have done the best film ever. We are all pleased about it because it is all finished. Myself and Peter's has finished because it is already done. We were really chuffed about doing the filming because it was something different on doing in the work skills group.  We worked as a team doing the filming and we worked by ourself with Ben then we put them on the computer or in pairs but when we put them on the computer.
