Following on from a successful event in East Reading, we are looking at the possibility of a regular Over 50s’ group, run by volunteers, to give older people the opportunity to get together, socialise, and enjoy a light lunch and some relaxed games.
We are looking for friendly volunteers to help out at the launch event; serving food and refreshments, chatting to the attendees, joining in the sing-a-long with our professional singer. This is a great opportunity to meet new friends and support older people in relaxed and friendly surroundings.
If you think this might be for you please get in touch for a chat to find out more.
