Ask members to name their favourite summer songs.




Ideas for a practical activity could include painting rainbows, because June is 'Pride Month'.

Or you could take photos of members in summer hats and sunglasses.


Or you could go outside if sunny to have a glass of squash and enjoy sunbathing for a few minutes (remember the factor 50 suncream). Take in the view, enjoy the colours, listen out for birdsong, smell the fragrances, feel the textures and maybe taste some herbs or edible flowers.
