Hi Dave, I haven't seen you for ages.0:02
What have you been up to?0:05
I've been helping out at the community centre.0:08
Well, you know I have a part-time job at the Redhill Retirement Home?0:13
Well, I got to know a lot of the senior citizens there quite well, and some of them don't get out much, so I thought it would be a good idea to start organising a few trips out and about0:17
in the minibus to different places.0:27
That's very nice of you.0:29
Well, we're all going to be old one day, you know.0:31
I suppose that's true enough.0:33
I think it's awful the way that some elderly people are treated.0:35
Just because they're older doesn't make them any less of a person.0:39
We should all show them more respect as a society and as individuals.0:42
I think about my own grandparents and how I didn't really get the chance to know them very well, so I treat these people like stand-in grandparents in a way.0:48
So where have you taken them?0:55
We haven't been to a lot of places yet.0:57
It takes a lot of organisation and time to get everyone ready.1:00
But we've had a trip to the community centre, and that's where I've been, playing cards and reading to people whose eyesight is not very good.1:03
For the next outing, I'm rounding up some volunteers so that we can go for an evening out at the bingo hall.1:11
I'm also hoping to sort out a coach trip to the flower show next month.1:17
No, I mean, why don't you volunteer to help?1:23
Oh, well, um, yes, all right then, why not?1:26
Great, you won't regret it.1:31
Okay, well, give me a call with the details tomorrow.1:33
Great, talk to you later.1:36
