Another three months gone. I’m sitting in the lounge looking through the window at a bright blue sky and sunshine. It could be the Summer come late, really lovely for November.
I have been kept up to date with everything that has been going on and I am improving after my operation, thank you all for your good wishes.
My thoughts are going back over the year, which I have to say, has been one of the best for the Group.
What has been achieved is wonderful and to hear that on 25th October the Scanning Service started with a fracture nurse as well made it even better.
Rebecca, the Osteoporosis Nurse, has been liaising with the Group and has attended exercise classes and spoken to various people. I wish her well in her new position.
I have been in touch with the Ipswich Group, as the Chairman was standing down due to health problems and other commitments and nobody could be found to replace her. Ipswich has a very good service based in the hospital and it would have been a tragedy if the Group had folded after their years of hard work. I was pleased then to hear that Anne Barnes will be taking on the job for a year, with some new Committee. I wish her well.
It’s always good to keep in touch with other groups. I think people don’t always understand that to run well you need a very committed Committee. Yes, we are lucky to have this at the moment but we all keep getting older and need younger people to move the Group forward.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank my committee for their support throughout the year, and everyone else working for the Group. Without all these people there wouldn’t be a Group.
I wish you all a very happy and peaceful Christmas and a healthy new year and look forward to seeing you on January 26th for the AGM and the speaker, John Buss, Editor of the Lynn News.
