Last night we split into two groups to go on our quarterly leafletting run for Older Wiser Local Seniors.

We headed to Burley, Kirkstall & Headingley to ensure their service users know what's coming up over the next 3 months.

OWLS provide a wide range of activities to help local seniors remain fit, healthy and independent. Whether it’s a trip to their allotment, a day out shopping, or an exercise class; they have all sorts going on.

All of the activities and services that they arrange are tailored to help older people meet other people, learn new skills, and have fun together.

Katie came back to see us from Sheffield, so that was a good enough excuse for us all to head to the pub after our run.

Thanks to Helen & Bryony for leading a group each. Congratulations to Katie Lees on her 150th good deed, that's an amazing achievement & to Jason on his 30th.

Well done team!

This afternoon, 10 members of GoodGym Leeds headed down to the new 21 Cafe in Kirkstall to help prepare for their opening with some painting tasks.

21 Co. is part of Sunshine & Smiles, the Leeds Down Syndrome Network. Sunshine & Smiles provides a support network in Leeds for children and young people who have Down Syndrome and their families. Until they were founded by a small group of parents, Leeds did not have a support network to help children and families living with Down Syndrome.

21 Cafe are two cafes and a shop based in Leeds, run for and by people with Down Syndrome to offer training and work experience with the aim of creating job opportunities.

Welcome to newcomers Hannah, Elspeth, Charley & Dini. We hope to see you again soon.
