Diary Dates

Friendship Is Back in Action!

We welcome our friends from Stones in the Community who we are working in partnership with. You’ll get to meet Julie and Tori at some of our events.

DIARY DATES JANURAY - JUNE 2026
Please contact either Wendy or Di to book a place on any of our events, except for Freddie’s Friends at Frédéric Bistro and Chit n’ Chatter at the Early Bird. For these two sessions, just come along.  Our walks are really gentle meanders. We take our time, enjoy the fresh air and good company, and keep ourselves moving without rushing. Walks are weather dependent, and for everyone’s safety we
won’t go ahead if it has been raining and the ground is muddy. If you are unsure on the morning of a walk, please give either Wendy or Di a call before setting off.

NOTE: Keep an eye open for more details of Julie’s dance/fit classes weekly from Friday 10 April – more details to follow.

Tea & Tech at Invicta Grammar School has had a new name, now called Tea, Tech & Tête-à-Tête!  We noticed last year that as the students got to know you, there was a little less focus on the tech and a lot more chatting! We loved this so much that we decided to make it official. This session is now open to anyone who would enjoy spending time chatting with a younger person. Of course still feel
free to bring along your mobile phone or laptop if you would like help with it, but you are just as welcome to come for a friendly natter over a cuppa.

Julie from Stones in the Community is starting a fun exercise/dance class commencing Friday 10 April, running weekly for 12 weeks. This will be held at Maplewood Court. Times TBC. We will bring you more details as soon as know. Julie needs for 12 willing participants who like to move or boogie to some fun music!
