And just like that, it’s Thursday Club again! At Mencap Liverpool and Sefton, we aim to support both the physical and mental wellbeing of our members. Each week at Thursday Club, we offer activities that people can enjoy and take part in together. This week we were joined by Debbie, who led a beautiful sound bath session. Our members really enjoyed the experience, which used sound healing techniques to help people feel calmer, happier, and more relaxed. Sound healing isn’t new. For centuries, people across many cultures have used sound to ease pain, calm the mind, and support overall wellbeing. During the session, Debbie used a mixture of drums, chimes, singing bowls and gentle chanting. Members simply listened and allowed the tones and vibrations to wash over them — it was a lovely, peaceful experience. Thank you, Debbie. Alongside the sound bath, there was plenty happening across the evening. Some members enjoyed a game of pool in the Games Room, others took part in mindful colouring, and there was a lively game of boccia too. None of this would be possible without our amazing and dedicated volunteers. In the middle of all the activities, they make time to chat with everyone, offer a listening ear, organise the teas and coffees for everyone, and at the end of the evening leave everything looking as though we were never there. Our volunteers are truly magic, and we can’t thank you enough. We can’t wait for next week! Read More

We are very sad to share that our wonderful member Carole Williams passed away last week. Carole had been a member of Thursday Club since 1974 – an incredible 52 years. She was a much-loved part of our Mencap Liverpool and Sefton family, and she will be deeply missed by everyone who knew her. Our thoughts and love are with Carole’s fiancé, Kenneth, and with her family and friends at this very sad time. As we’ve been looking through photos of Carole, one thing stands out in every single one – she is almost always with Kenneth. They were a devoted couple who clearly loved each other very much.  In 2020, when Carole turned 70, she became our very own Captain Tom, walking around her garden every day to raise money for Mencap Liverpool and Sefton, always thinking of others. During Covid, despite the challenges (and plenty of giggles!) of learning how to use Zoom, those online meetings opened up precious ways for Carole and Kenneth to see each other in those early months. Carole especially loved it when Boo’s Zoo visited – she was happiest holding the animals and enjoying every moment. But most often, you’d find Carole and Kenneth sitting together in the comfy armchairs at Thursday Club, holding hands, chatting, and enjoying a cup of tea. Goodbye, Carole. You will be so missed, and you will always be part of our Thursday Club family. Read More

Our member Rachael along with our Outreach Manager Jo recently and visited A 2 B @a2b_foundation at Aigburth Academy @aigburthacademy to meet the newly formed Monday Group — a group of adults with additional needs who meet weekly to decide what they’d like to do together. The group is full of excitement, keen to go on trips, have fun, and welcome new people to make friends. Rachael said: “I’d really like to get involved. It was interesting and I’m up for going on the trips as I love going to places and travelling.” A big thank you to John, Jackie and Helena for making us feel so welcome! See you all again soon. #CommunityConnections #LearningDisabilityInclusion #MakingFriends #StrongerTogether #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs LiverpoolCommunities Read More
