Co-ordin8 supporting our students during shutdown

May 1, 2020 By Jenny Aherne 1 Comment

With thanks to Torbay Council Community Action Fund and Devon Community Foundation Co-ordin8 has received funding to continue our activities in a new and exciting way.

Isolation activities to be posted out

Co-ordin8 staff, who are working, are busy supporting our students and their families and carers whilst we are all in lock down. We are collecting meds and doing shopping, ringing people on a regular basis, planning and preparing activities to be mailed out or posted on our website and going with individuals for their permitted exercise whilst maintaining social distance.

  • Isolation activities.
  • Isolation activities: walk
After a phone call from a student who is bored, an Emergency Activity Pack was provided. Activities included a couple of sewing activities, colouring sheets, felt pen, glue, 2 making activities, a cooking activity and a quiz for the house.

There are stories to write, cakes to bake, quizzes to do, colouring pictures to print off and word searches. The activities mailed out to people are specific to their interests and availability of resources. Who says lock down is boring?
