March 23rd to the 25th stroke survivors from all over the UK met in Manchester at Heald Green

The photos were taken mainly with a phone camera and eight by HD video camera they are the eight before the last two. A great time was had by all the stroke survivors, this was my first trip out since January this year so a great achievement for me.  The photo of the dog was taken on our way to the meeting when we stopped off to have coffee with a wonderful friend, who calls me NUTTY .... The dog should be named NUTTY 2.


Pip the dog and the following 5 photos were taken on the first day Friday the 23rd March 


Photos 7 to 15 were all taken inside the Trafford Centre on Saturday 24th March.


Photos 16 to 23 were taken on the evening of the 23rd at Heald Green..
