Susan Fletcher features in the EBU Magazine |
Susan Fletcher has written an article for the May issue of the English Bridge Union magazine (see page 58), in which she explains how Eye Gaze technology enables her to continue to play bridge, despite being unable to use her hands. An inspiring story – and by the way, there is still the opportunity to contribute to research into MND, by following the link to Susan’s Just Giving page at https://justgiving.com/susan-fletcher-watts

Monday morning Face-to-Face bridge |
We are continuing to run the face-to-face sessions on Monday mornings, starting at 10am.
There's no need to book in advance - just turn up at the club. We will take payment by card when you arrive. All sessions are hosted, so that you can come along without a partner.
These are hybrid sessions - ie the online session will be run at the same time, using the same hands. Results from both sessions will be merged before being uploaded.
