Please check individual websites or call/email them for updated opening times, rules & regulations. Some book clubs are even offering virtual opportunities to join in.

THE BOOK CLUB

Thinking of joining a book club?

There is to some, a stereotypical image of book clubs as talking arenas for bookworms, or gaggles of girls discussing the latest ‘chick lit’. Which, of course, to an extent they are, but there are many more reasons for joining a local reading group.

A reading group can, for many, offer an excellent route into an established local social network. Offering the opportunity to meet people from a variety of backgrounds and cultures, book clubs often also give you the chance to meet people with fairly similar interests, making it an excellent way to get out and meet new people.

Many groups have a focus towards a certain genre or variety of fiction or non fiction, although some are broader than others. Being given a reading list can help you to extend your usual reading, as you will need to keep up with the set texts if you are going to participate in the group, and while many groups decide on titles as a joint decision, the chances are some of the choices will not be your usual favourites. Reading of course will help you to broaden your horizons and vocabulary; the discussion and insights

from other readers give this aspect a whole new dimension.

Reading groups are also an excellent way to help improve your communication skills. Discussion will hopefully naturally improve your listening skills, as you navigate your way through others interpretations of the reading material. Speaking in a group is much less formal and structured than the classroom, but will help you build confidence in talking to new people, and to speak to a wider audience.

Finally, if you have any ambitions to write your own novel, reading groups can be a fantastic resource, giving you a window into others opinion’s, what for them makes a good or bad plot or characterization, and perhaps help you to mature the seed of your idea.

Running clubs

Running has become a more popular sport

Are you thinking of joining a running club? Perhaps the lingering thoughts behind your New Years Resolution, or shedding some pounds pre holiday? Running clubs have become more common in recent years, and can be found

throughout the county should you be inclined. Running clubs are not just for the fitness fanatics in lycra among us, but also offer a diverse and friendly membership. Joining a club is an

excellent motivational tool, allowing you to adopt a slightly different mindset and take the hobby slightly more seriously.

It also means company and security. Many runners enjoy pounding the streets alone, but company can spice up a run, providing the motivation of someone to pace yourself with. If you are in training for a specific event, say a marathon or Race for Life, then you may be able to team up with another runner who is also competing. If you are simply looking for a fitness activity, the motivation of not letting down a running partner should keep you going; but if you are competing, a group can add a little competition to help you push yourself! They also offer a good opportunity for socializing. Some groups do organize social events, group runs and other such friendly activities.

Finding a partner to run with is also ideal for those nervous of running alone. Both male and female runners can feel unsafe, especially when the evenings draw in again, and using a group can offer safety in numbers, and access to well thought out, properly lit routes.

Another important aspect is access to health information. Running can be a very simple activity, but if you are serious, then coaching advice is crucial to ensure you work up to your goals and avoid injury. A club should also be able to give advice on finding a local physiotherapist, sports massage specialist or any other health professional you may need.

Despite many coats of preservative, the structure of the wooden fence in our front garden rotted, and a recent storm sent it off down the road, thankfully missing the neighbour’s car. However,

YOU CAN OPEN UP A WORLD OF OPPORTUNITIES AS A FOSTER CARER

Foster carers come from all backgrounds bringing everyday life skills and experiences to fostering. They offer a safe place in a nurturing environment where children and teenagers can thrive and grow.

Your home could be that place where a child or teenager can take time out to understand what has been happening in their lives and take positive steps forward.

A listening ear, guidance and support are valuable services that fostering families provide.

Luton Council’s fostering team ensures foster carers receive the support they need to secure the best outcomes for a care experienced child or teenager placed in their home.

We offer a substantial financial package, first class professional training, a variety of support groups including peer support and regular supervision from your dedicated social worker.

We need more people like you to help improve the outcomes for care experienced children and teenagers. If you have a spare bedroom and flexibility with you time to commit to fostering we want to hear from you.

Call us on 01582 547633 for a no pressure chat about what it’s like to become a foster carer with us.
