Burntisland Prospects Group

Linda Sharp from the Prospects group asked us to tell you more about how the Prospects group in Burntisland works.
Getting creative keeps everyone busy at Prospects

Ann and Fiona enjoy their time at Prospects
"Prospects meetings for adults with learning disabilities and their friends are held every month in Solid Rock, the High Street, Burntisland. 
We meet on the second Saturday of the month, 10.30-12.30 in Solid Rock. Our next meetings are 12 March, 9 April, 14 May, 11 June.
Friendship, fun, celebration, support and sharing the good news of God’s love are what we are about.  We recognise each other’s gifts and celebrate the fact that everyone has something to contribute when we get together.  We’d love some new members so please spread the news about the group.
Over a cup of tea or coffee we catch up with each others’ news. Everyone joins in the singing, playing instruments, waving flags and using signs and symbols.  After a short talk we get crafty – we’ve made lots of different things, some more successful than others!
Here’s what some folks say about our meetings:
"The soup is really good!" (Jamie)
"I love the music and meeting friends." (Fiona)
"I’ve made new friends." (Laura)
"I like playing the musical instruments."  (Stuart)
"I’ve learned some new songs and signs." (Moira)
"I like drama and the biscuits." (David)"

If you'd like to know more about how you and the person you care for can join in the call Linda Sharp on 01592 874303.
