Ageing Better Project

A BIG thank you to everyone who took part in our Ageing Better Fun, Friendly, Festive Get Togethers in December at Margate Caves.

Gift bags were decorated for stocking fillers for women and children at Oasis Domestic Abuse Service refuge. Festive cards made for isolated older people in Thanet. And one of our participants created a quiz for people to do on their tables.

Others preferred to meet people and have a chat.

We invited Kent Coast Volunteering volunteers to a thank you presentation where everyone gave them a cheer. They included volunteer drivers, volunteer befrienders and TOFFS volunteers.

Feedback included:

“I was nervous, I did not know what to expect, I need not have worried. Cannot wait to come again”

“Did not expect so many volunteers, made everyone feel so special”

“It was fun to be able to join in”

“Met some lovely people in a lovely relaxed atmosphere”

“A marvellous place to make new friends”

“It made my day”

We have New Year New Year sessions on 15, 22 and 29 January at Trinity Community Resource Centre 10.30am – 12noon. If anyone is interested, please book with Emma or Georgie on 01843 609339
