As a result of Afford Belmore’s reputation in the Canterbury Area as well as links within the community the Lifestyle Centre was asked to host a workshop facilitated by performer and choreographer Caroline Bowditch. Clients from Belmore and a number of other organisations who visited the site had a great time participating in the dance theatre workshop learning different moves with assistance from professional dancers and interpreters. The workshops were offered as part of Caroline Bowditch’s Falling In Love with Frida Australia tour, which is based on Universal Design in dance and performance pioneered by Jürg Koch at the University of Washington, Seattle and tells the tale of the reclaiming of a disabled artist, a love like obsession and an enquiry into how we shape what we are remembered for. This event is only one of many examples of the reputation Belmore Lifestyle Centre has built within the local community as well as the important role that they have in providing services to people with a disability within the area, well done guys and keep up the great work!
