the Forth Valley Sensory Centre newsletter - Falkirk Council

MY GUIDE can help give you the confidence to go out again, re-engage
with your community, take part in enjoyable activities and increase your
independence without having to rely on family and friends.
Volunteers can guide you to a coffee shop or to a local social club,
however they do not provide domestic services such as opening mail,
cleaning or preparing food.
Volunteers receive thorough accredited training that has been endorsed
by VISION 2020 and all have Criminal Record Bureaux checks.
If you think you would benefit from being matched with a MY GUIDE
volunteer please call the Centre for more information.

A HUGE big thank you to Joe, Lindsey, Clare, Kirsty, Isla, Kirsty, Norma,
Alan, Andy, David, Fiona, Lorraine, Ingrid and Pat who all braved the wet
weather on Sunday 2 nd October to abseil down the Forth Rail Bridge and
help us raise a fantastic total of £1899.
Thank you also to the family, friends, service users and volunteers who
turned out in the rain to cheer us on.
We have some photos of the event and will display these in the centre
over the next few weeks but if you want to see them before that please
