ABSTRACT

It is recommended that the two themes of ‘days out’ and ‘holidays’ are covered together, as some people may not have had holidays, but most people would have had days out, even if these were within the local area. Charity shops often sell used postcards at reasonable cost and these are ideal. The group members are given the opportunity to choose a postcard that brings back memories of a place they have been. It does not have to be a picture of the actual place as long as it brings back memories. For those who didn’t have days out or holidays, discussion might centre on how they did spend their time during the summer months.
