#OldSilkWorks

Never too old for a disco!
We had a great boogie at #OldSilkWorks first 70s-inspired disco - complete with DJ, bouncer on the door, mocktails and the lovely company of Warminster School kids, who also lent their disco lights. Groovy time had by all!

Our latest #intergenerational partnership kicked off with a skittles match between #OldSilkWorks members and the Year 6s from Princecroft primary who will visit the club each week. Fab to see the generations connecting!

Dogs are a daily presence in our day clubs in Wiltshire, but it's not often we are visited by a donkey. Needless to say, a hit!
Huge thanks to Kelly's Donkeys and dear, patient Dermot 💕
