“Any Questions” at Knaphill
After summarising the aims of TALK, I handed over to Fiona Potter (Knaphill’s answer to David Dimbleby!) to chair an ‘Any Questions’ session on TALK with a panel of four Recoverers - Jean Raisey, Julia Brown, Trevor Hale and Ken Yard.

Fiona first quizzed the panel members on various aspects of TALK, including their likes and dislikes, benefits in coming to the sessions, views on sitting with the same or different Group members, suggestions for improving the sessions and for new activities, etc. The rest of the Group were also invited to express their opinions and to ask questions.

The discussion was then continued by table groups, after which Fiona relayed their conclusions to the rest of the room.

There was a general preference for a wide variety of themes and activities, with a similar spectrum of likes and dislikes. ‘One Recoverer’s meat is another Recoverer’s poison!’

It has to be mentioned that (without recourse to bribery) some very complimentary comments were made about TALK.

Finally Fiona thanked everyone for their valuable contributions, particularly the panel members, who are to be congratulated on coping so well.
