🌼💀 What a busy day at The Gathering Place today as we marked Día de Mu***os (Day of the Dead)!

Everyone thoroughly enjoyed our Mexican-inspired lunch, and the pudding was a particular hit! 😋 A huge well done to our kitchen team, with fantastic service once again!

It's wonderful to see just how independently everyone is working. From the moment we arrive, it's all hands on deck! Cleaning the house, setting tables, preparing ingredients and getting the cooking underway. Everyone knows their roles and responsibilities. A real team of busy bees! 🐝👏

Meanwhile, upstairs, our two groups have been busy making more decorations for our Christmas tree, which will be displayed at Derby Market Hall at the end of November. 🎄

The creativity and skills are really developing, and the improvement in everyone's sewing over the past few weeks has been fantastic!

A massive WELL DONE to everyone! You're all doing an amazing job, and it's lovely to see so much teamwork, independence and enthusiasm! ❤️👏

We finished the week off with a visit to the wonderfully different 👀☠️ Museum of Curiosities in Nottingham.

What a fascinating and unique place to explore 🔍 There was something to catch our attention around every corner from strange 😱 and curious pieces of history to rooms filled with eerie dolls 🎎

Unusual film memorabilia and collections of taxidermy of familiar 🐁🐈and much loved animals 🐴 🦓 🦁

Some of us even ventured into the atmospheric 👻😱caves.

There is an impressive collection of autographed photos of famous faces 🤩 and celebrities along with film memorabilia 🎬

It certainly is an unusual museum to visit, a little bit spooky 👻🕷️ a little bit strange and full of fascinating things to discover.

We all enjoyed the weird and wonderful experience and a great way to finish this Halloween season 🧙 🎃

🧡 What a busy and creative day we have had decorating the 50 spooktacular cupcakes we had baked for Mickleover 95 Football Club Halloween Event ⚽ 🎃 👻

Buttercream was whisked and made colourful then carefully piped onto the cupcakes 🧁🧑‍🍳 to create football pitches, spooky mummies 👻 and cheerful pumpkins 🎃

Fondant footballs ⚽ and creepy eyeballs 👀 were crafted to add those all important finishing touches

Later some of us continued working on our recycled Christmas tree decorations ♻️ creating miniature trees🌲and snowman⛄out of donated buttons. Wonderful additions to our growing collection 🤩

A huge well done to everyone for all the hard work, creativity and fantastic teamwork 😊❤️

Today at FeelAliveHub, we celebrated International Animation Day! 🎨📽️

This morning, we explored the history of animation! We looked at how animation has developed over the years, from early animation techniques ✏️📖 to the amazing 3D animated films we enjoy today! 🦁🎥

In the afternoon, we put our creativity and acting skills to the test by recording our own voiceovers for animated snail characters! 🐌🎙️
Everyone had the opportunity to experiment with different voices ,add their own dialogue and put their own spin on the characters! 🎭

We soon discovered that being a voice actor isn’t as easy as it looks! Getting the timing right, matching the characters’ movements and delivering the lines took plenty of concentration and practice! 🎬

A great day of creativity, laughter and trying something a little different! 😄🎨🎬💙

Yesterday , We split into two groups. One group picked up their ukuleles and enjoyed a musical session, practising their skills and making some lovely music together... watch this space there might be a concert on the way 🎼🎵🎶🎵

Meanwhile, the other group got creative decorating our Gathering Place, transforming the room ready for Halloween! 👻🎃

Things took a mysterious turn in the afternoon as we became detectives for the day! 🕵️‍♂️ Everyone had to examine the evidence, listen carefully to the clues and work out WHODUNIT!

Most of our detectives managed to identify the killer correctly! 👏🔎 However, some were cleverly tricked by the misleading evidence, proving that you can’t always believe everything you see! There were plenty of twists, turns and discussions as everyone tried to piece together the truth.

It was fantastic to see everyone getting involved, putting their detective skills to the test and working through the clues together. 🧐
