Trinjan and Acton Lions Club are planning to work together to raise funds for worthy causes.

 

Trinjan are helping to fund a wheelchair for Skye

Trinjan managed to raise a fantastic sum of £755 towards the wheelchair. This is down to the generosity of Trinjan members.

Skye – Louise  is 5 years old girl with Spina Bifida. She is unable to walk, crawl or weight bare. She is a very happy little girl with a cracking sense of humour. She started main stream school this year and although at the lower end of the class academically she seems to be keeping up and has a huge fan base.

The type of wheelchair Skye needs is costing £3000.

Trinjan launched Table Tennis and Aerobic/Dance Project for Women in March 2017

Weekly sessions are held at Thistleworth Tennis & Social Club, 129A Ridgeway Road North, Osterley, TW7 5LX.

This project aims to encourage women of all ages and abilities to participate to stay physically and mentally healthy. In addition all participants will get ample opportunity to socialise and make new friends. With an ageing population, people are now more at risk of developing Alzheimer’s and Dementia in later life. According to a documentary about Dementia on the BBC last year, playing table tennis and taking up a hobby like dancing on a regular basis enhances memory and mental agility. Playing table tennis is a great way to stimulate the brain and promote quick thinking while improving hand-eye coordination. Table tennis is a low-injury risk sport that keeps one fit and flexible, without putting severe stress on joints.
