Adult Carers Newsletter Spring / Summer | Apr - Jun 2019 Adult Carers Newsletter Carers Spring Forum “You seem to offer a varied programme in your newsletter, always good to read and keep in mind” Over 25 carers joined us for our Spring Forum in March at Community House in Bromley. We presented a service update which included how many carers we have supported and how many carers and professionals have attended our groups and courses from October 2017- February 2019. The afternoon started with a game of Social Bingo which was enjoyed by all. We then updated carers and professionals on our upcoming service development; such as our Carers Allotment and Walking for Health Walks- more details of those on pages 12 & 13! Carers then enjoyed tea and cake, followed by a reading of two of the Carers Creative Writing Competition pieces; including the winning entry Reminiscences featured on page 15. Thank you to all that attended and participated and for all your valuable feedback. We are glad you enjoy our newsletter and appreciate you taking the time to read it and getting involved with our service! Please let us know if there is anything you would like us to arrange for our next or future Carers Forums. Tuesday 4 June 2019 Come along to 2:30pm – 4:30pm our next Community House, South Street, Bromley, BR1 1RH Carers Forum! Please RSVP What have we been up to? Spring / Summer | Apr - Jun 2019 What have we been up to? Carers attended First Aid workshop delivered by British Red Cross Grant Hoyle from British Red Cross ran a free Everyday First Aid workshop for carers in Bromley. Grant has kindly agreed to come back and hold another workshop in June. Please see page 9 for further information. Carers led three knitting groups Two of our carers led three knitting groups in January, February and March; making miniature hats for Age UK’s Big Knit Campaign. Diane and Margaret said they found making the hats relaxing and therapeutic. They will also be running the Arts & Crafts groups going forward. May’s Arts & Crafts group will be related to Dementia in aid of Dementia Action Week. Thank you Diane and Margaret for dedicating your free time to support other carers! Carers attended two Mindfulness for Resilience workshops in Mottingham and Penge run by Bromley Mindfulness Robert Mitchell of Bromley Mindfulness delivered another two workshops for us last quarter- in Penge in the afternoon and in Mottingham in the evening. Carer feedback included: “ I enjoyed the course, especially the managing sleep patterns and techniques to help with sleep. I found Robert very helpful and the relaxation techniques very useful”. “I thought the course was fabulous. There weren’t many people at it, but this meant we got a lot more personal time with Robert. I thought he was very “in tune” with the needs of carers and geared relaxation techniques to our lifestyle. I found it very useful and interesting”. Our Mottingham evening workshops were far better attended than our afternoon sessions in Penge. We hope that Bromley Mindfulness will be able to deliver some more mindfulness workshops in autumn- so please let us know your preferences if you are interested in attending. 2 What have we been up to?
