Hello-Does anyone remember the Activities 2 Go Magazine that used to be published each month? I am trying to locate any past copies.
Any help will be greatly appreciative.
This is my email.

Hi Clara,

This topic has come up a number of times. I believe publication was ceased in 2012.

Would you find it useful if we were to release a printable monthly magazine in pdf format?

Wishing you a lovely week.

They were a fabulous resource. I still use mine weekly for trivia! Have not found another magazine to match the variety.

I have a years worth of those magazines....Love them and use them all the time.. I think they are copy write but we could maybe pop up some ideas from them :-)

Hi Clare,
This is not what you asked for but wandered if "The Daily Sparkle" Reminiscence
News Paper would be of any interest. Used to find it quite helpful and it's still being
printed.

Hi Clara.
First of all...my grandmother's name is Clara and she turned 102 the other day!
Anyhoo...I also used to use these magazines all the time and have some old copies. Honestly I tend to use the golden carer's resources more these days, but occasionally dig one out to find something.

If anyone has any feedback on what in particular they enjoyed from these magazines that is not already covered on the Golden Carers website we would love to hear about it. New ideas are always welcome.

Happy belated Birthday Clara, what a milestone!

That was great too = Activities 2 Go was great - Wealth of Experience is good also.
