On Friday 20th July, East Berks Scrabble Club were one of the many exhibitors at an event run by the Public Health Team of Bracknell Forest Council. The event showcased different organisations and how those organisations benefit an individual's health and wellbeing. Some of the exhibitors demonstrated how they benefit social and physical health. We promoted both the social side as well as mental well-being.
Lots of interest, several people took leaflets and took part in the various puzzles we had on display, so we may expect to see a few new faces in the forthcoming weeks.
Well done to Maureen, Tricia, Wanda and Graham for keeping the stand busy on one of the hottest days of the year.
PS The event was photographed and videoed by many people so look out for us appearing in papers/websites/facebook pages in future weeks!

Richard won 7 games out of 7 winning Division B. Hot on his heels was Maureen who finished second with 5.5 wins. (That draw made the difference!).
In Division C Tricia came third with 5 wins.
Well done - sounds like a great day out and journey home!
