Cirencester Deaf Children's Club (CDCC) have enjoyed a year full of fun activities and outings in 2019. In May, the young members and their families gathered at Roves Farm, near Swindon, for a fun-packed day on the farm. Members got a chance to enjoy a rather bumpy tractor ride to meet a very Hungry Caterpillar, as well having a go at feeding the lambs and racing the energetic sheep and goats! It was a particularly poignant session in July, a number of CDCC members graduated from the club. They will continue to be supported by our Family Support Worker and will be invited to get involved in a number of upcoming exciting opportunities. It's been an absolute joy to see the children grow into young people and we wish them all the very best for the future. And what other way is there to end the year, other then a CDCC Christmas party. Once again the members were treated to a visit from Mr Christmas himself, who very generously took time out of his busy schedule to hand out gifts to the children. None of these activities would be possible without the continued dedication of the CDC volunteers, so a big thank you to them for all hard work and creativity in continuing to come up with fun and engaging activities for the club to enjoy. Gloucester Deaf Club (GDC) have enjoyed several highlights this year including hosting the UK Deaf Sports Whist Drive Pairs in April, in which two GDC members came runners up. In August the group then enjoyed a seaside trip to Torquay where they also paid the local Deaf Club a visit, and in October they came together for a fun quiz night.
