IN case you haven’t yet heard about the wonderful Forget Me Knot Café, it is a Monday morning café to provide information, peer support and fun activities aimed at helping with co-ordination, brain stimulation, and general health and wellbeing for people suffering with dementia, mental health issues, old age or isolation.
Co-ordinator, Michele Pethers says: “Everybody is welcome – come along with your carer, we would love to meet you! We meet twice monthly 10.30 – 12.30pm at the Chinnor Village Centre. You will be welcomed with a cup of tea and biscuit. We start with fun seated exercises, followed by our visiting expert. At the end of the session, we play parachute games, juggling, throwing balls, flat football, floor netball, finishing the session with a poem, lyrical or a reading.”
