I love the “on this day”... I use it every morning to get a good conversation going. Can I ask if there is a British version on the way?.. I tend to skip past a lot of the U.S material as it doesn’t really register with my residents. I do Wikipedia a lot of stuff, then scribble it on to the OTD sheet.. but it would be much better if it was already there

I have a lot of residents who were evacuees as children during the war. Most of them were sent to North Wales and have lots of stories to tell. I am gathering these stories during my 1:1’s with them and I create recorded anecdotes (rather than asking them to speak live as they will falter as they recall) I edit the videos and audio recordings and then play them back on a big screen.. we also have a little singalong and read through history books
