Broadwindsor Film Club – Friday, 16th August

At 7.30pm at the Comrades Hall Friday, 16th August, Broadwindsor’s Community Film Club will be showing…

The Fall Guy (12)

Directed by David Leitch
Starring Ryan Gosling & Emily Blunt
(Running time 125 mins)

Ryan Gosling stars as Colt Seavers, a battle-scarred stuntman fresh off an almost career-ending accident.  Colt is persuaded to return to his stunt career when he’s told his ex, Jody (Emily Blunt), is directing a film and asked for him specifically.  With hopes of winning back the love of his life, Colt returns to set only to find the movie’s leading man missing and production in peril.  Ensnared in an increasingly wild conspiracy, he must solve the mystery to save Jody’s film and get one last shot with her.  What could possibly go right? 

David Leitch delivers a hard-hitting hilarious action-thriller with The Fall Guy.

  • Doors open at 7pm for 7.30pm.

Jurassic Coast Primary Care Network Social Prescribing – Friday, 2nd February

Running alonside FareShare at Drimpton Village Hall this Friday from 9 – 11am,  a Care Coordinator from the Jurassic Coast Primary Care Network will be in attendance.
The following information is taken from their website:

>>> Social prescribing is when patients are referred to support in the community, in order to improve their health and wellbeing. Patients are connected to community groups and statutory services for practical and emotional support.

This service can help patients if:

  • They need linking to support for mental and physical health issues, such as smoking cessation and healthy eating
  • They are feeling isolated and want assistance in becoming more involved in your community
  • They are struggling with work, housing or money worries

Care Coordinators connect patients with the help, care and support they need to manage their long term conditions and to make decisions about their own care.

This service can help patients if they are:

  • Over 18
  • Need help finding their way around different health, social care and support services
  • Have one or more long term conditions (e.g. diabetes, asthma, COPD, CVD, dementia, chronic pain)

A care coordinator can work with you to create a care and support plan that is centred around what matters to you. Work closely with your care givers and the important people in your life to make sure you receive the best possible care. Support you in navigating the health system and accessing local support and services.

A referral to this service is entirely voluntary. Nobody is obliged to use the service and we welcome all patients who need support who are engaged and happy to work with us.

The team work across Bridport, Beaminster and Lyme Regis and attend each practice at least twice a week. The team can see patients at their medical surgery, at home or via a telephone or video call. <<<

This Friday, 2nd February at Drimpton Village Hall is an OutReach service running from 9 – 11am.
