12 of our fantastic Dyscover volunteers enjoyed a pub lunch on Monday to mark the start of Volunteers’ Week. Marilyn, Rosemary and Lynne thanked the volunteers, on whom our service depends, for their ongoing commitment, enthusiasm and support to Dyscover.

On Wednesday Dyscover volunteers were represented at an evening reception at the London Living Room in City Hall. Julie Upson and David Ludlow are seen here with a gloriously sunny backdrop of the Thames and Tower Bridge.
Our Volunteer Coordinator Marilyn described the evening as inspiring and memorable, and was particularly impressed by the motivating key note speeches made by Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson, Martyn Lewis CBE and Gamesmaker Emily Yates. All this was lapped up while sipping wine, eating tasty canapes and imagining living the high life all the time!





8 members of our Wednesday ‘learning to live with aphasia’ group have stepped up to the challenge of a 4 week singing taster course. Musician Sue Messenger is leading this younger group through a variety of popular songs from football anthems to Beatles hits.
