Hurray - we had decent weather - the first time ever! We even opened the outside doors to cool the room down!
This month we were into technology and how it can offer a degree of independence in the lives of carees and some peace of mind for the carer. We looked at flood detectors, magic plugs that let the water out if the tap is left running, alarms, pill minders, special telephones. You name it, it was there. Dawn and Shirley, from the Enable Me Centre in Leamington Spa, carefully explained and demonstrated the different items, showing how they can help in different instances.
There was lots of discussion, trying out of devices, and suggestions for new ones! All members went away with a useful goody bag.
