Facebook – Motivating and Empowering

Sophie has been an active member of Croydon Vision for some time, but she felt she was missing out on experiences during lockdown, especially Isha’s excellent food!

We visited Sophie in her home to help her set up Zoom so that she could access concerts and connect with her family. During our meeting she mentioned that she had read about our Facebook Live events in the Newsletter. She was particularly interested in watching the cooking events, so she could learn to cook like Isha!

When I left she couldn’t believe that we had covered so much!

She is now looking forward to joining us at the next Facebook session where she will learn to make a main meal in time for the weekend.

Join us, every week on Facebook Live at 4pm to help support your wellbeing during the coronavirus lockdown.
