Childhood Memories of World War II - potential new group
This group invites anyone who has been influenced by this experience.
This group meets on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month at 2pm
Exploring aging
This group is a follow-on from the wartime memories group, and is pondering the huge change from a childhood assumptive world of rationing, bombing, absent parents, and the postwar world. A world focused on the future rather than survival and victory. This is a group mainly based on personal experience of growing up at this time, rather than study of historical documents.
The sociological changes, in healthcare and education, and in family life, with demobilisation for many and deferred service for others has been crucial.
This group is limited to 8 members and meets on the first and third Tuesday of each month at 2pm.
