We are a happy group of men & women who meet at St. Michael's Hall, Summersdale, to play games like Scrabble & Whist, providing mental stimulation, & also sharing tea together. We have excellent volunteers who help transport frail members. We run outings 3-4 times a year to local attractions they wouldn't otherwise be able to get to, which are well received by our members. Funding our club can prove challenging and we are keen that it should continue to help older people in the community.

Why the community needs us

As one of our members has said, "It gets us out and we can forget about our troubles for a couple of hours". Increasingly older people are isolated in their own homes without the opportunity to meet like-minded friends. We help keep older people in the community engaged with one another and, most importantly, add to their quality of life in widening their horizons and increasing their feeling of wellbeing and involvement in the community.

Our impact on the community

The club has been running for 30 years, every week on a Tuesday afternoon. Members very much look forward to their regular meetings which provide a life-line for some. The club also aims to offer local outings such as a visit to West Dean Gardens, or Stansted Park, all subject to available funding.
