We are organising our Burns supper and are going all out as it has been such a dreary winter. We have highland dancers coming in, a piper and 2 men from the local Masonic Lodge to come in and address the haggis and toast the lassies. One of our own clients have also volunteered to say the Selkirk grace. Looking forward to it already.

Any outing to Perth concert hall in the main Theatre also comes highly recommended and staff are excellent, the disabled seating and access is the best in Scotland and the seats are the best in the house. Better still the carer gets to go free with those who require a wheelchair escort. With no booking fee and friendly staff it is well worth a visit http://www.horsecross.co.uk

In the Fife council area there is a bus that can come to your home for free and provide a history experience of the time around Second World War. The bus experience is called ‘Blackouts Bombs and Bananas’ it is accessible to wheelchairs and bookings can be made through:
Janet Klak at Customer Services Team Leader, Glenwood Library, Generates KY6 1PA or via e-mail on Janet.Klak@fife.gov.uk
Even better is that there is no charge for this service.

A great day out that we had was on a boat belonging to the Seagull Trust, with a sail starting at the Falkirk Wheel going to the boat yard at Bantaskin. The trip lasts approx 2 hours. We went for high tea afterwards at the Dutch Inn, Skinflats who do a set menu for the elderly at two courses for £6.95. The boat trip is donation only. The Seagull trust has a website http://www.seagulltrust.org.uk for more information. They also have sailings from Kirkintilloch area.
