What interests you?

We had an interesting chat about what makes people want to come to The Stroke Association of Manitoba for first time and what makes people want to keep coming back.

We discussed the option of setting up a questionaire to ask members what activities they might be interested in. We are going to set up a few questions and see if it would be possible to pass out a small survey at our upcoming Christmas party.

Egg Salad Sandwiches

Egg Salad Sandwiches

The Stroke Recovery Association of Manitoba is always trying to find ways to meet the needs of it's members and yesterday we had a meeting of a new sub-group called "Moving Forward". We are stroke survivors who are now trying to find ways to keep learning, growing and contributing.

This meeting was about talking and planning for the future but we also had a concrete focus of learning a basic cooking skill-- Egg Salad Sandwiches

For some of our group it is a new skill to be making the sandwich and for some of us we are looking for new and easier ways to cook now. All of us are interested in finding healthy ways of eating and preparing food.
