My WRVS
You are here:
WRVS clubs give older people opportunities to meet up with old friends and make new ones. Sometimes held in WRVS centres but often in other places, like village halls, they offer a range of activities and events that bring people together in varied and active ways.
Our community centres offer a place to meet up with friends and take part in activities.
A warm and welcoming environment to find out information on services for older people in their local area.
A great place to meet, have lunch and catch up with friends.
Socical centres and community clubs can be at the heart of the community for older people.
