Lloyd visits Goldie Leigh!

Lloyd Page from Mencap visits Goldie Leigh!

During March earlier this year Lloyd Page who works for National Mencap visited Goldie Leigh. Lloyd is a well known national 'champion' for people with learning disabilities, a conference speaker, fundraiser and a renowned author.
 
Lloyd first visited Atlas House. He spent some speaking to the patients and staff. Here's some of Lloyd's feedback about Atlas House:


'I found the patients and staff very friendly'


'The place looks like a good place to get better'


We then went over to TOPS day centre. Kaye Jones, ALD Day Services Manager came out to greet Lloyd and then they suddenly recognised each other from thirty years ago! They both were part of Leemore Day Centre in Lewisham and we enjoyed hearing the stories from both Lloyd and Kaye. They also remembered some holidays they went on with Leemore Day Centre. Lloyd said:


'Kaye is a lovely woman who always puts people with learning disabilities first'


It was great to have Lloyd at Goldie Leigh and as a thankyou we gave him a 'personal health book' and a goodie bag. We look forward to welcoming back Lloyd to Goldie Leigh as soon as the outbreak of covid-19 has finished.
