Lou’s Place has introduced a volunteer-run Friday games morning. It’s a great way for the clients to interact with each other. Over the last few weeks, we’ve had up to 8 participants a session. The volunteers have had such fun playing with the women, and the laughter that it brings is heart-warming. We’ve even roped in the kitchen volunteers with answering Trivial Pursuit questions. Some favourites are Jenga, Trivial Pursuit, Snakes and Ladders, Hedbanz, and card games. It opens up easy conversation among the women. There is certainly a sense of ‘when can we do this again?’ at the end of each session.
