Lunch club clients were absolutely thrilled when Marian, our cook, announced that a donation from Waitrose meant half price meals for three weeks. A freshly cooked two course meal was available for just £3. There was a buzz of appreciation around the room. Thank you Waitrose - it really made a difference.

Would you like to improve your balance, core strength and stamina? Come and join our chair based exercise programme, where we use a chair as support or as a seat depending on your physical needs. It is surprisingly effective as a way to work every part of your body. Details of when and where will be released soon so contact us to register your interest.

What a wonderful week of events here at Age Concern to celebrate the King’s coronation with celebrations at our lunch club and an afternoon tea party at Bereleigh House in East Meon. We were thrilled to be invited to such a beautiful setting and grateful thanks to our hostess.

We had a beautiful sunny walk at this year's Charity Walk for Peace held at the Hogmoor Inclosure in Bordon. Thank you to everyone that sponsored us. The event is an initiative of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Elders Association – part of the UK’s oldest established Muslim community and as ever was well organised with a delicious curry afterwards. There will be a cheque presentation later in the year.

We are delighted to have our programme of outings ready for booking. Once again we are heading off to Highclere Castle, on a solar powered catamaran around Chichester Harbour, and Tangmere museum as well as new places to visit. Or join us to celebrate the Kings Coronation at our afternoon party in East Meon.
