What can an active retirement group do when they are no longer allowed to be active?
Well in the case of Togher and District Active Retirement Group they got busy behind closed doors and the fruits of the labours have resulted in a charming book which is now on sale for just €3.00. Reflections on the Corona Virus Pandemic in 2020 contains thoughts, poems and stories by the members, some of which are raw, poignant, honest and emotional, describing the sense of loneliness and isolation the pandemic brought with it last year.
Written from the first lockdown in March right through to before Christmas, this is an evocative account of what it was like for many of the active senior citizens who found themselves having to cocoon away from their loved one.
