Community presentations:

 

Jonathan from the Bubble Theatre was present to show the Blitz Film which was made in May 2010 and the voices of those who narrated their experiences were taken from actual interviews.  They referred to the 1940 bombings, air raid shelters, and the Anderson shelter and the bombing of hospitals that included a maternity ward.

 

Representatives from Time and talents spoke about the role of the Association and what they offer the local community.  Most of the work involves intergenerational work where young and older people interact with each other, some of this is done through the mosaic project.

 

The presenter responded to questions.
