Wednesday 23rd April
Report written by Jen Stoneham
We had all GoodGym modes of travel in action with a walking group, running group and cycling group heading to Admiral Jellicoe House for our task this evening.
Continuing our work from a weekend visit earlier in the month, we had even more bright colours to help liven up the dementia garden for residents.
Emmanuel received an introduction to Priscilla, Queen of the Desert from Jen and Harry, as well as career and financial advice from our very own Richard and Judy!
Dave was distracted by a local cricket match taking place on the field behind the garden, luckily Val got him back on track by handing over the GG Red paint brush.
In just under an hour we covered 11 fence panels. Top prize goes to Andy for his precision work and perfect timing! Well done, everyone, what a wonderful, colourful evening!
Admiral Jellicoe House is a care home for Royal Navy, Royal Marines and WREN Veterans and their spouses. It is part of the Royal Naval Benevolent Trust charity based in Portsmouth. The home has been opened for just over 2 years. We have a life size boat in the grounds that has a large screen which simulates being on the bridge of a ship. This area needs to be made in to vibrant colourful and inviting area.
