Seahaven Hard of Hearing Club

Our August meeting was an outing to Berwick Church to see and hear about the restoration of the paintings. We were met by members of 06/03/2022, 08:59 Page 1 of 1 the church, who had arranged a lovely tea in the vicarage gardens. After consuming lots of tea and coffee, scones and beautiful cakes, we went on a walk around the churchyard and took in the wonderful views of the South Downs. Once inside the church we looked the paintings by Duncan Grant, Vanessa Bell and her son Quentin (all of the Bloomsbury set). The talk on the paintings and how they came about was really interesting, especially the fact that local people were used for the faces of the people in the paintings. Especially thought provoking was the painting of the airman, soldier and sailor kneeling near the altar as these paintings were undertaken in the mid 1940’s and the war was a very recent event. I would advise anyone to visit Berwick Church it is in such a wonderful setting. Our next meeting is on Friday 2nd September at St James’ Trust Clubhouse, Blatchington Road, Seaford and our lip-reading Tutor, Gill Houghton, will be talking about her life and living with deafness. Gill will also be bringing her hearing dog, Harvey, along with her. The next lip-reading classes will start on Tuesday 6th September at 10am at Sutton Barn (formerly the 60+ club). The term lasts for six weeks.
