In - Deep Over 50's Dinner

We run a monthly three course meal for isolated older people with live entertainment. Volunteers are vital to the dinner as with out them it would not go ahead. They provide a variety of roles.

What You'll Do: 

Duties include setting and clearing up, preparing and serving food, washing up, chatting to older people. Volunteers are normally needed from 10.30 - 3.30 once a month.

Why You'll Love It: 

It is a great way to make a practical difference in a fun atmosphere. You may even find yourself dancing.

What You'll Learn: 

The difference meeting up with others makes to an older person living on their own.

What We're Looking For: 

Organised volunteers who will remain calm when things are busy.
