Keeping connected during the lockdowns has had it’s challenges. Life has slowed down for many of us, with that strange mixture of more time to stop and talk but unable to actually meet people. Some things definitely feel upside down!
The Day Care Centre at Raheen Hospital has been closed since March 2020, the weekly activities put on hold til safer times. I know those of us who work there, and those who attend, are missing the friendly faces and welcoming environment.
A few weeks ago we decided to reach out and see if people would be interested in receiving activities to do at home. What a big hit it is proving to be! Every week a pack is sent out, and each week I receive back lovely photos of people ‘working from home’, as one woman put it.
It is heart warming and reaffirming to see how important staying connected is, despite the hurdles.
