From Dundee
City Council
A SUMMER FAYRE
to raise funds for service users at Dundee’s Mackinnon Centre takes place on
Saturday (August 12). Staff, families, carers and centre users will be on hand
with the usual stalls and games to keep all ages amused. Opening at 1pm the two
hour event will feature face painting, a tombola, guess the elephant’s birthday
and other attractions to raise money for the service users’ comfort fund.
The Mackinnon
Centre is a skills centre for adults with physical disabilities or progressive
illness and offers activities including sport, gardening, textiles, music,
computing, art and cooking. It also offers respite services for adults with
physical disabilities or progressive illness.
Staff at the
Mackinnon Centre encourage and promote the spirit of independence so that
service users can regain confidence and self-esteem, while at the same time
acquire the necessary skills, knowledge and acceptance to cope with a changed
lifestyle.
The centre is
at 491 Brook Street, Broughty Ferry.
