Caerphilly People First are helping the people who have been allocated flats in Newbridge with basic food and hygiene and cooking skills. This Monday Fran taught them how to cook spaghetti bolognese and the group finished off with a simple banana custard for dessert. The cookery class was enjoyed by all and everybody said they were confident enough to repeat this recipe when they move into their own homes.
Recently Caerphilly People First took part in a six week course on Food and Hygiene. Ffion, Kath, Nicole, Sharon, and Luke from Caerphilly People First took part and I am pleased to tell you that we all passed the exam. Thanks to Menna for being such a good teacher.
At the moment Ffion Bethell and Colin Hills are the Ambulance Community Champions for the Ambulance Service. They train members on when to ring 999 and when not to ring 999. If you want more information or would like to have this training please contact us on 01443834444 and ask for Ffion Bethell or Christy Taylor.
Here is the latest newsletter put together by our members. We hope you enjoy reading it.
From November 2017 until January 2018, five members of Caerphilly People First – Ffion Bethell, Sharon Cochrane, Amy Jones,Michelle Manning and Kath Toms – attended a leadership course run by Katrina Kurowski.

Here is a new and different version of the Caerphilly People First logo. We made it using clay figures and a technique called stop-motion animation. Click on the image and you should be able to watch it. We hope you like it! Thanks again to James and Angharad and here’s a link to the website we used to make it happen:
