It was very interesting hearing about Birmingham Settlement, and what they did for you. I have visited the (lively) Red Tent on Facebook, but have now terminated my account because it was beginning to take up too much time. 

The video came over well, and I was particularly interested when you mentioned your supported housing. It comes on the day when I have been choosing carpet/curtains/blinds/removal co. for a new flat I have been offered by my present landlord.

I'm really pleased to be moving away from this place, and am optimistic about the new community I'll be joining, and at the same time determined to keep up my interests outside the sheltered scheme. The art research project is in full swing, and i've just done my first open mic spot at a poetry reading in Cambridge.

My new place has a view of garden, trees, and in the distance, a footbridge over the river Cam.

Congratulations, Jan, on a great video.
