SUMMARY:CSF NEWSLETTER: MAY 2025
DESCRIPTION:Hallo Everyone\n\nIs May your favourite month here in the PO? More blue skies and sunshine with warmer weather and nature at its best\, especially after the welcome rains of March and April. \n\n\nDrop Ins\n\n\nWednesday 7th May\, Bar le Pablo\, Céret\, 10.30 \n\nCome along for a coffee and a chat. There will be paperbacks to exchange and some friendly faces. With luck and sunshine we shall be outside again. \n\nMonday 19th May\, Café des Artistes\, Laroque des Albères\, 10.15 \n\nCome and have a browse through our large selection of paperbacks. Any books you bring along for exchange will be gratefully received. Sorry\, but we cannot take hardbacks or non-fiction. Bring a friend and stay for a coffee. \n\n\nEvents in May\nWednesday 21st May\, Garden Visit Fuilla\, 10.15am \nWe are invited to an Open Garden event in Fuilla (near Prades/Villefranche)\, which will also include our host’s talk on their forest project. This replaces the usual gathering in Prades. This is a wonderful opportunity to visit a private paradise in the tiny village of Fuilla (just uphill from Prades). There will be cake and light refreshments. For precise directions please email jill.merriam@yahoo.com \nPast events\nCSF Walk for Life was held in pretty Caixas on the 24th April under brilliant blue skies in perfect spring weather for this annual Activity for Life event. Around 50 people attended – with 38 taking part in either one of the two walks (8 or 5 kilometres) or a friendly game of petanque. \nAll enjoyed sampling the delicious cakes and savouries\, profited from the tombola\, bought books\, greeting cards or local art. \nThanks to the generosity of all\, an enormous 603€ were raised for CSF Sud de France AFTER a 200€ donation to La Ligue Contre le Cancer\, whose research is important to all cancer patients here. \nA special thanks to the Maire and the people of Caixas for their welcome. \nLooking ahead\nIn September a Tea Time Quiz \,with tea\, cake and champagne\, is in the planning stage\, with various venues being considered. More details in the next newsletter. \nAL Supporters needed\nAll our Active Listeners have a supporter who provides a balance of encouragement and challenge. Meeting every six weeks or so\, usually by telephone\, they allow the AL to share any concerns about their client work and to practise their listening skills. Supporters are either experienced ALs or others from a relevant professional background with a good grounding in what CSF is about. They support their colleagues\, helping them to achieve they best they can for CSF clients. \nIf you would like to know more then please contact Penny at sud-penny@cancersupportfrance.org \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease remember that if anyone is struggling or needing help\, the CSF telephone and email helplines are always open.   We are there for everyone needing assistance at this time as well as for those affected by cancer. There is also lots of information on our website.\n\n\n\n\n\nc/nn \nShare this:\n				Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Click to share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest\n			\n\n	Related\n
