Alan is fast becoming our IT wizard, he has designed and developed our “NEWS BLOG”, your comments and thoughts would be very welcome, this is going to be the ideal way of keeping you all updated about what is happening with your Support Group. Alan has also been working on a leaflet that we will be able circulate around the hospital and other public places.
At the support group meeting we had a draft Memory Book/Diary to show you, we are making improvements to this and will keep you informed of its developments.
The Buddy Scheme is being driven by Denny, we are keen to build upon this keep so an eye on our blog for more updates.
The next Road to Recovery Course is taking place in November and once again I am sure that it is going to be a great support for all those who attend.
I cannot end this, our first newsletter, without acknowledging the support and commitment shown to this group by our committee members and partners within the voluntary and health sectors that have got us to where we are today. This is a very long journey we have started, but together we will travel this rocky road and turn what have been very traumatic events in our lives into something positive.
There are too many people to name individually but a very special friend to our group cannot go unnamed…….. He is of course Tony Murphy the PALS Officer from the Walton Centre. How he fits in all he does I will never know, his energy and knowledge seems endless. I know he is an employee of the Walton Centre but his commitment to support those affected by any types of Brain Injury goes far beyond what is expected from someone in his position. Tony you have touched the lives of so many people that the words THANK YOU do not seem enough but, thank you, we will always be indebted to you.
