Unfortunately we are not yet able to reopen - please watch this space and we will let you know when we have enough volunteers to restart.
Time Out meets every 2nd Thursday of the Month: 2.30pm to 4.00pm.
It’s an ideal opportunity for elderly citizens in our community to meet together for an afternoon of fun and entertainment while enjoying good company, a drink and some home-made cake! We don’t have a lower or upper age limit. Some of our guests are housebound and we aim to provide transport for them to and from each meeting. We also have guests who rely on wheelchairs and we have a team of wheelchair pushers to make sure they arrive on time. Of course we have guests who arrive on foot and sometimes in a taxi.
Our programme is varied but usually begins with Happy Birthday wishes followed by a quiz, and then poems and readings interrupted with fun and laughter.
Tea and home-made cakes are an important time for getting to know each other, catching up with news and having a real good natter.
And after refreshments we have our main, live entertainment which our guests love! One of our favourites is welcoming the children from St Oswald’s Primary School to sing for us. They usually visit twice a year as well as contributing to our Christmas Party. We have had groups playing saxophones; guitars playing Hank Marvin hits; and keyboard players as well as singers with songs from the shows and some 1950’s hits as well as Al Johnson songs.
