Winterfield Golf Club was our destination today, where Kevin, Julie & Doreen looked after us beautifully, once more. The best china was out and we had a brilliant afternoon, our Thursday group coming together with our new Wednesday group for the first time. New friends made and great conversation around the tables.

We were joined by Lorna Hill of ‘Sharing A Story CIC’ and (Birthday Girl!) Rita Bradd, who have been such great friends to us – their input is so much appreciated.
Thank you so much to all who made this possible by donating so generously to group funds.

Our annual Macmillan Afternoon Tea was a great success once again. Maggie appeared with her legendary meringues (Birthday Boy Kenny managed two of them, as well as his birthday cake!!). Congratulated ‘Golden’ couple, Nesta & John, and paid tribute to the great work carried out by Macmillan…….all go!
One or two donations for Macmillan still to come in. Thanks to all for joining in, baking and bringing treats to share.

A very enlightening and interesting evening for all who attended DDN’s first public event. Our thanks  to Michael Huddleston, Dementia Advisor with Alzheimer Scotland for his informative and very enjoyable presentation. We all left with a greater understanding of the challenges faced by folks living with a diagnosis of a dementia related condition, and with even greater resolve to make life better for these families in our community.

Thanks also to the High Street Co op for donating provisions for refreshments on the night, and also to staff at Dunbar Library for their continued support.

What fun and time nicely spent at our recent Easter Egg Painting competition (with just a wee bit competitiveness on display!).  After much deliberation, the winners were chosen by our lovely judges, Elspeth and Melody – a hard task indeed.
