next meeting 11th Nov 2.30pm

SASH
NEXT MEETING
The next SASH meeting is on Tuesday 11th November, at 2.30pm at
St Richards Community Centre
Egmont Road
Hove
Tim has organised a representative of Brighton and Hove Social Services to meet us. Tim explains what this will be about. He says:
"A senior member of the Brighton and Hove Access Point will be coming to give a short talk on the service they provide - the ‘single point of contact for new and existing users’. Although aimed at those living in the city, the range of services available may surprise some of you. If you live outside the City, don’t worry, most services, if not all, will be available throughout East or West Sussex.
Another reason for them coming is so they can experience first hand the problems faced by people with aphasia trying to communicate in a friendly supportive environment.
They would also like a member of SASH to attend one of their team meetings - any volunteers?"
That sounds like an informative meeting. PLEASE COME ALONG!
If you need a taxi or any other information ring Jeannette on 01273 413759 or email jeannette@gould28.wanadoo.co.uk
