🎶 Octagon Memory Choir – What a Joyful First Session! 🎶

We had an incredible start to our very first Octagon Memory Choir session last Friday! We welcomed 45 wonderful people to a morning filled with singing, smiles, and shared memories. From familiar tunes that sparked joy to new friendships made over tea and biscuits, the room was full of warmth and connection.

Music truly brought everyone together — and this is only the beginning!

If you or someone you know is living with dementia or experiencing memory challenges, our brand new Octagon Memory Choir offers a supportive, uplifting place to sing, connect, and simply enjoy the moment. Carers and family members are always warmly welcomed for free.

🎵 Join Us Every Friday
When: 11:00am – 12:30pm
Where: Westlands Entertainment Venue, Yeovil, BA20 2DD
How much: £4 suggested donation per week (carers attend free)
No singing experience is needed. Free parking and step free access.

Join us this Friday and feel the magic for yourself!

Happy Wednesday! Please find below the Goldenstones gym poster for their newly created MS gym class which starts next Monday at 1pm. Also below are some Q&As to address your comments:

1) Do I need to pre-book the class?
Ideally book in advance (using the contact details referenced in the poster) as the gym will limit the number to 14 to start with. However, for the first session next Monday, it's okay to turn up and pay on the day.

2) Is there car parking available?
Yes, there is plenty but there is a fee. Pay at the machines in the carpark.

3) What is the format of the class?
The class will be seated to start off with. The instructor, Claire, is very open to adaptations to fit the needs of the attendees and can make the workout more or less challenging.

4) Where is the class within the gym?
The instructor, Claire, will be waiting in reception for everyone from 12:30pm, so if anyone wants to come earlier and chat about medical conditions, for example, you're more than welcome to.

5) Do I need to be a member of the gym?
No.

6) I don't have MS but I've other neurological conditions/mobility challenges. Can I attend?
Yes, certainly. The more the merrier 🙂

We hope you enjoy your first gym class and feel fantastic for the rest of the day.
