People: Improving people’s mental wellbeing
This funding will help the continuation of an over 55s lunch club to provide freshly made hot meals and social games, plus a weekly armchair fitness programme to support and improve mobility.
About this cause
We're a group who work to continue to provide an over 55s lunch club service to members of the community, providing hot meals and creating a social environment. Alongside this we would also be extending our armchair fitness class once a week to support with light exercise aimed at improving mobility and wellbeing among the elderly and members who have physical disability or mobility issues.
How this cause brings people in the community together
This project will help to bring people and communities together, providing a weekly over 55s lunch club creating a social event to reduce feelings of isolation and loneliness, build confidence, make new friends and enjoy a hot meal. Alongside this, there will be a weekly armchair fitness programme that will help to support improvement in mobility, fitness, and physical and mental wellbeing.
