  2. The Calvert Trust visit 26th May to 30th May 2014

    Monday, 26th May 2014

    A group of members and volunteers travelled by train from Weston-Super-Mare to Barnstaple on Monday 26th May to enjoy another wonderful five days, four nights at the Calvert Trust, Exmoor.

    An amazing time was had by all. The weather was kind to us and there was very little rain during our stay. We were able to walk around the lake on a couple of evenings, listening to the birds and viewing the fish activity in the reservoir. Such a peaceful location and stunning views.

    I plan to take a group to Exmoor next year during April or May. Start saving your pennies if you would be interested in undertaking this very rewarding challenge.

    A great night at our latest fund raising event. Lots of fun and a very successful fund raiser. A big THANK YOU to Mark and Tom at The Regency Inn for making this event so enjoyable again. The regulars at the Regency made us all very welcome and supported our charity wholeheartedly.

    Saturday, 26th October 2013

    Phillip, Jean, James, Ernest, Andrew, Aileen and Spud enjoyed another lovely day out with the club. We travelled to Bristol by bus, meeting up on the Centre and had an hours stroll around the dock side, Queens Square, Welsh Back, St Nicholas Market, Corn Street then made our way to The Watershed.

    After an enjoyable lunch in a nearby pub we walked to the M Shed on Princess Wharf. A very interesting visit. Most of the members used the RNIB “Pen Friend”, an  audio voice pen which reads the information from labels on a number of exhibits. These Pens are provided, free of charge, for the use of the blind/visually impaired who visit the M Shed. On exiting the museum we opted for a trip aboard the Bristol Harbour Steam Train. This travels to The Create Centre and back. Time for tea and cakes!

    At approximately 4.15pm we made our way back to The Centre to catch the bus home to Weston.
