Thursday 7th September 2017 - walks, cooking and fitness

Posted 2:30pm
Second blog entry of the day, as more news on a few subjects.

Had a nice walk this morning for our Izzwalkz CP.  Need to pick up numbers, but we still have a lovely chat and laugh. A new member joined us today - and that was through AGE UK (so it is nice to know that we are recommended by people). It was nice to chat to him, and we were also able to direct him to some other services in the area.  Hopefully we can get the funding we have applied for to really establish five/six healthy walks in Islington.

We heartily recommend another service called Bags Of Taste - who demonstrate cooking various recipes on a budget - in a very proactive way. They are running another course in Islington (Canonbury) starting in a couple of weeks. Sadly just too early for our next Ajani customers. But I will be attending two of the days with Rosie, who came through our pilot with great success. I met her this week and she is starting a college course in a couple of weeks and is pushing herself forwards fantastically. Yay!!!

Dean continues to run our Saturday personal training session. It is now every Saturday, meeting outside Highbury Pool and Gym at 12:30pm, and then going up to Highbury Fields for an hour. Sadly I am unable to go this coming weekend, as I have benefited well from these sessions myself.  We are looking to start a midweek session nearer to Camden - probably on the day of the course - for our service users.
