Lifeworks Youth Group get excited for Christmas

A Christmas visit to Endsleigh Garden Centre and the Ivybridge Brewery Co.

Singing penguins were absolutely fantastic

To get the Lifeworks Young Adults in the Christmas mood we started our day with a visit to Endsleigh Garden Centre which the young people had asked to visit last time we went past. It was beautifully decorated as always and got everyone excited and enthusiastic about Christmas. Everybody agreed that that the singing penguins were absolutely fantastic. Once the team had taken in the Christmas atmosphere and had a good walk around we found time to chill out in the café, with many buying themselves a much-needed refreshing drink.

The Ivybridge brewery Experience 

Next stop was the Ivybridge Brewery Co. where were warmly greeted by Simon and his team many of who have learning disabilities too, as the brewery wants to support people with disabilities and giving volunteering opportunities and paid employment which is amazing.  You can meet the Ivybridge brewery Co at our Panto we will be delivering at Christmas as they will be there to sell beer to help with the Christmas spirit! More information on our pantomine on the 20th December will be posted soon. 

We were than shown how to make beer from the Malt having warm water poured on it and strained through the hops and the yeast being added and the mashing – After this we all had a go at bottling the beer and last but defiantly not least, those young people who wanted to, were allowed to have tasters – The lighter beer proving more popular than the dark beer, cheers!
