The programme will offer warm spaces and company throughout the winter
Belfast Council run community centres are guaranteeing an extra warm welcome to older people this winter with an extended programme of activities.
The council states: "Our campaign will see each community centre dedicate time each week for older people to drop into their local community centre, where they can enjoy a chat over a hot cuppa, some light refreshments and catch up with other people in their community."Sessions are free to attend throughout December, January, and February. For information on which community centres offer warm spaces and the times, visit here.
“I’m delighted the council is acting and reaching out to help our older residents through the campaign. Our community centres are such a vital resource within local communities and this new campaign ensures our senior citizens have a safe and welcome space to visit each week.”
