Annual Coach Outing
Many thanks to Ali and Lally for organising our Coach Outing this year! 48 of us boarded the Tilley’s coach on the morning of Friday, 17th May and visited Kingsley Village, Fraddon for some much appreciated retail therapy, before heading off to the Cornish Birds of Prey Centre, where we could admire their collection of beautiful birds of prey and parrots, most of which had been rescued. We then had our very own Flying Display, featuring a Barn Owl, a Harris Hawk and a Peregrine Falcon. The Display was not only fascinating to watch but the accompanying commentary very informative too.
Grant from the National Lottery Awards for All
We are delighted to announce that we have been successful in our recent application to the National Lottery Community Fund and have been awarded around £14,000 towards two years’ Hall Hire and Refreshments. The social side of Exercising for Mobility is just as important as the Chair-Based exercise and the regular opportunity for a cuppa and a chat between Fitness Sessions, plus the social events we organise help keep our Members in touch with other.
Bude Heritage Day will be on Sunday 21st July. This year, the Exercising for Mobility Gazebo will be on the grass beside the Central Methodist Church. Do come and pay us a visit! There will be three 20 minute Chair-Based Fitness Demos during the course of the afternoon and we will also be running our fun Play Your Cards Right fundraiser game!
