Queen’s Jubilee Lunch

On the 31st May BHCCA held a Jubilee Lunch in celebration of the Queen’s Jubilee. Members of the Day Centre and the Lunch Club joined in the celebration and also invited were the volunteers who help with the various activities run by BHCCA. The kitchen staff produced a wonderful 3 course meal, which was enjoyed by all. One of our volunteers made an amazing cake which was cut and passed around at the end of the afternoon. A singing group, Sweet Harmony provided some lively entertainment after the food had been consumed.

Green Flag to the rescue!

The minibus hadn’t broken down!

Six employees of Green Flag arrived at the Day Centre on the 7th June to offer their services to renovate the garden area used by our Day Centre members. Our wooden benches had been neglected for several years and were in need of a lot of TLC! Most of the team set to work sanding the benches while one member set about clearing the overgrown garden area. Once the extensive sanding was complete, the benches were then given 2 coats of paint with the oak bench being coated in teak oil. The memorial plaque n the oak bench was carefully cleaned by one of the team.

The team worked hard all the time they were there and it was a hot day! Our garden furniture now looks brand new and the garden is now clear for more plants to be put in to replace all the weeds taken out.

Our thanks go to Andrew and his team for volunteering to do in a day what it would have taken us weeks to achieve ourselves. The garden area is now being used by our Day Centre members.
