There are groups of people that are hidden away out of sight that would greatly benefit from seeing and talking with people other than those paid to do so.
Many of us don't realise these people exist.
Suchet was back on TV on BBC breakfast to highlight the work being done with Dementia. How groups of musicians were enjoying "talking to" others through engaging them in making music.
They had found a hidden door into these peoples brains when all other entrances were blocked.
People with Dementia were tapping out rhythms and "dancing" with their hands and feet. It was good to see.
Something I hope to do in Ulverston is get many small community groups formed like the one at Lightburn Park.
I am meeting people living only 50 yards from each other that have similar interests and don't know the other exists. We have no common ground where we can meet those that live nearby and this could be of great enjoyment to us all.
I shall get these groups going if I can whether or not I get elected and am at this moment exploring other groups nationwide, that have ways of bringing people together.
More on this again soon!
