Age We Care Horam Day Club is open on Tuesdays and Fridays between 10am and 3pm at Christ Church hall in Horam. Many of the clients have physical challenges, and some have varying levels of dementia.
Nusrat Ghani said: “It was a pleasure to visit Horam and meet the fantastic volunteers who help run the Day Club. I’m aware of how difficult the pandemic and periods of lockdown have been for our elderly residents and their carers.
"The Day Club provides a fantastic opportunity for older residents to meet other people, make new friends and have fun in a safe and happy environment.
They are always looking for volunteers to help, as well as people who would benefit from coming to the club, so please do get in touch with them if you are interested in joining.”
