Links and new Facebook group from engAGE

Hello everyone,

I wonder how we’re all finding it at home?  I’ve almost finished a new crochet blanket – for those who don’t know I LOVE to crochet thanks to the lovely Woollies who got me hooked a couple of years ago.  My children are embracing online learning with lots of breaks ha… I wonder where they get their distraction gene from hmmmm.  We’re all good and I hope you are too.

I’m just about finding my feet in terms of work….I have been contacting tutors to see what we can offer online to keep the engAGE momentum going.  Wonderful volunteers are putting their thinking caps on too.  If you have any ideas please let me know.

For example I was emailed the following link from an engAGEr -thanks Andrea!  Click on this link and it takes you to a whole load of ideas – virtual tours of museums (Art Appreciation anyone?), online learning (creative writing perhaps!), music…wellbeing….meditation….ALL sorts of ideas to try if you fancy.
