Memorylane Eastbourne - Newsletter of September/October 2022

Hi Everyone

By the time this newsletter is out, I am personally hoping for a little rain. Although its so lovely to see the sun, this summer seems to me to be particularly hot. With the extra work on the allotment that brings, I look forward to a little respite.

September is busy this year with an extra music afternoon, a trip out and the Towner Cinema reopening to Dementia Friendly Screenings. We also still have usual groups and park/allotment. So there’s plenty going on and hopefully I will see you around.
