​Memory course & First Aid courses

​There are still a few places available for the memory course to start in January 2019. If you would like to come along for this interesting exploration of memory and how we can improve it contact me at  u3asouthwell@gmail.com giving an indication of what day of the week you are available for.

The free British Red Cross first aid course was excellent and I would encourage more people, especially group leaders to come to one, it was very common sense giving us all more confidence to tackle situations which can arise in any setting, I am taking names for future courses in the New Year so please be in touch u3asouthwell@gmail.com
