We love a Farm Shop visit and today it was Knitsley Mill.
We all had 'healthy portions' in the cafe before buying some of their home made goods in the butchery, deli, and bakery before being delivered safely home in our minibus by Janet.
Considering it was September in Consett the weather could not have been more glorious.

Today we had a leisurely cruise along the River Wear on the Prince Bishop.
It was a really beautiful day and so peaceful on the river. Many thanks to Jamie and his crew for the fascinating commentary and looking after us so well.

We had a very distinguished visitor at our coffee morning today. The Mayor of Durham Cllr Gary Hutchinson. It was great to have him spend some time chatting to some of our members and explaining the vital work we do, including supporting people affected by social isolation whether due to age, disability, or frailty.
Everyone was very happy to see him.

We had some excellent feedback for our minibus driver 'the lovely Janet' that I wanted to share.
Janet recently took some residents and staff from a local care home on a trip to the seaside. Everyone had fish and chips, icecream, and a scenic drive along the coast.
They all had such a good time we're taking them out on more trips.
What a star she is! Thank you for your hard work x
