SO STARTING TO SOCIALISE AGAIN…AND HAVE BEEN SIGNED UP TO DO ANIXERTY WORK SHOP IN NOVEMBER. DID NOT HEAR FROM BOGNOR WOODWORK AND CRAFT CLUB DESPITE CONTACTING THEM,

Wow, you have come a long way since you joined us last May, and clearly working hard on overcoming your anxiety. I applaud you 
You should also get in touch with your local AgeUK to see what they have going on in your area, such as social activities, walking groups, Health & Wellbeing or Strength & Balance classes, etc. It’s for all over 50’s and abilities, no problem bringing your carer along either if need be. Really worth giving it a try for reducing your anxiety by building your confidence 
I look forward to hearing of your continued progress

Sounds like you’ve come a long way & good to hear that you’ve found many things to get involved in. They should all help with your anxiety.
Well done on building up your social life after your stroke.
