CLASP Wokingham

CLASP Wokingham is preparing for a busy June, which includes the annual Learning Disability Week.

As has been its custom during the coronavirus pandemic, meetings are being held online rather than in person.

It holds regular Zoom chats on Tuesdays and Fridays at 10am, which is open to anyone within Wokingham borough who has learning disabilities and would welcome seeing some friendly faces.

On Tuesday, June 2, Heather Dyson from Wokingahm Borough Libraries will talk about the British countryside, its wildlife and flowers.

There two singing sessions with the Sing Healthy Choir: on Fridays, June 5 and 19. This is a chance to bet out some favourite tunes.

Glow Radio (Radio 210) will be the subject of the June 9 meeting, with Roger Noble speaking to the group.

Vicky Scotford, from Wokingham Borough Council’s adult services team, will be introducing herself to CLASP on Tuesday, June 23.

As part of their participation of Learning Disability Week, which has a theme of The Importance of Friendship During Lockdown, it will hold an online quiz night on Tuesday, June 16, between 7pm and 9pm.

We welcome anyone from the borough

and are keen to continue to support adults with Learning Disabilities in Wokingham, and want to reach out to those who are no longer at their day services or in work who may not have been able to attend our face-to-face sessions before, and let them know there is a community of like-minded people here to support them.
