Enable activity to restart Bring communities together Funding will ensure people feel safe participating

The 55 and Over Club has run for 4 years, with around 30 attendees meeting each week for coffee, an activity and lunch, helping ease social isolation within the community. Coming together regularly in a relaxed space enables members to make new friends and connect with other clubs and activities.

Microgrant funding gave the group a creative boost, supporting 3 festive craft sessions held at the community centre, making Christmas cards, decorations and wreaths.

“The grant meant that we could offer the activities for free and therefore enable more people than usual to have a go at craft making.” - Lead
