"Celebrating England" on St George's Day ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ 23rd April




โ€œThis royal throne of kings, this sceptered isle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-paradise, This fortress built by Nature for herself Against infection and the hand of war, This happy breed of men, this little world, This precious stone set in the silver sea.โ€ โ€• William Shakespeare



INTRODUCTIONS

Before starting this session, take the opportunity to pay respects to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 11, who died on 8th September 2022 and to our new King and Queen Charles and Camilla. (There is a royalty page here https://www.simondementia.co.uk/single-post/king-charles-111-coronation-6th-may-2023 )




By way of introduction, ask what people like best about England?


Do members have a favourite English place they like to visit?


Was anyone born or schooled in England, or have family members there that they visit?


Is there a famous English person that members would like to meet?
