It’s been a lively week at the Haydon Wick community cafés, with residents coming together to celebrate Easter and engage in stimulating activities.
Easter Cheer at the Haven Café
On Monday, the Haydon Wick Haven Café was filled with the joyful spirit of Easter. Attendees spent the morning crafting delightful windchimes in the shapes of chicks, bunnies, and eggs. The café’s dedicated volunteers ensured a fun and well-organised event, assisting participants with refreshments and the assembly of their festive windchime creations.
This seasonal craft session provided a delightful opportunity to celebrate Easter while fostering creativity and community connections. The Haven Café continues to be a popular gathering place, with the next event scheduled for April 8th from 11 am to 1 pm, promising more enjoyable activities.
Midweek Melodies at the Memory Café
Meanwhile, on Wednesday, the Haydon Wick Memory Café was alive with the sound of music during a lively “Singing for the Brain” session. Attendees enthusiastically sang along to beloved classics like “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” “Rock Around the Clock,” and “Always on My Mind.”
The engaging activities didn’t stop there. Participants also got their bodies moving during an energetic exercise session led by Lin, promoting both physical and cognitive well-being. The Memory Café continues to hit all the right notes, fostering engagement, socialisation, and a vibrant atmosphere for all.
These community cafés, organised by the Haydon Wick Parish Council, provide invaluable opportunities for residents to stay active, connect with others, and participate in stimulating activities.
