On Thursday 22nd August Ian Paterson from West Fife Community Support Services completed his final session before retirement from the Thursday multi sports session at the Michael Woods Sports & Leisure Centre for participants with additional support needs.
The DSF inclusive active recreation session is supported by Spirit of 2012 through GOGA and Ian is one of the most experienced Fife Council staff members lending weekly support to adult participants with additional support needs. Ian is one of many “significant others” whose commitment and expertise is critical to the smooth running of the Fife weekly programme of sessions.
Ian was as usual supporting West Fife CSS service user David Rennie and after the session the GOGA in Fife peer mentor volunteers surrounded Ian to wish him a very happy retirement and thank him for supporting them over the past two years plus.
