ENTERTAINING SUPPER


From David Brittain, Brigg Rotary Club

Residents and staff were provided with a great spread of delicious main meals and desserts all washed down with a choice of tea, coffee, juice or wine during Brigg Rotary Club’s annual winter visit to their old friends at the Leonard Cheshire Disability Home near Barnetby.
Every year the Club tries to brighten this day for residents and also provide a welcome break from the normal routine, by relieving the staff of evening meal preparation, except for those with very special dietary needs. This is just part of the community support work undertaken by Brigg Rotarians.



Following the meal the Sir John Nelthorpe School, Brigg, Music Department provided superb entertainment with the choir demonstrating their extensive repertoire of songs and solo instrumental performances to a most appreciative audience.
Later in the year, when the weather becomes milder, the Club will arrange a day out to a place of interest chosen by the members of the home so that those who can get around in wheelchairs can enjoy an extra trip day with a new set of wheelchair pushers!
It is always a most enjoyable experience for member and for the young people of the Choir and reminds us just how fortunate we are to be so healthy and active.
