May 2011 CHELSEA FLOWER SHOW The first event arranged was a visit to the Chelsea Flower Show for the over 60’s on the 26 th May 2011and was attended by 14 residents keen to experience the Royal flower show of the year. All who attended said that they were grateful to BHA and that they wouldn’t have been able to attend if this chance had not been given to them. One resident Robin Don, who lives in Pugin Court, Liverpool road commented via e mail: “ Just a wee note from Winnie and myself to say what a delightful outing that was yesterday. Even the thunderstorm helped make it an invigorating experience! It was the first time that either of us had been and certainly would never have attempted it without your inspiration. Thank you very much” THEATRE TRIP We managed to get some theatre tickets to see the famous dance group Flawless at the Peacock Theatre on their world tour and various residents of all ages attended and had a fantastic evening of fun. Mandy Sergeant a resident from 303 Upper Street who came along to the show sent in an email saying “ It was great - thanks for everything!”

May - June 2011 ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],YOUNG PEOPLE’S MEETING Having held a meeting at St. Mary’s for residents I also wanted to get the ideas from the young people of BHA and so on the 16 th June at 6pm a young peoples meeting took place with 6 young residents attending at BHA offices in Morland Mews. The young people had a lot to say for themselves and seemed really excited by the activities organised for the summer break and also they came up with some really good initiatives themselves for activities for the future. Ideas included a trip to Legoland, a visit to Arsenal Football Club to watch a match and a request that perhaps a basketball net could be erected in the football pitch area. Notes were taken during the meeting and all who attended received a copy of the minutes and will be kept updated with further meetings in the future.

A group travelled by train from to Hampton Court station and then boarded the boat along to the entrance to the show. As you can see from the pictures below the day , with fantastic weather was a brilliant sight for all who attended.

July 2011 ,[object Object],[object Object],HOPPERS RESIDENTIAL On the 29 th July 2011 a mini bus and two cars left London for Kent with 27 adults and children to have a weeks holiday at Hoppers residential in Five Oak green. Although some had been before for most it was the first experience and for some of the children the first time they had been to the countryside in their lives. Once settled in everyone was given daily chores to do which included laying the breakfast table, sandwich orders for the day trips, cleaning the communal toilets and washing up.
