Friday Club for the over 60s
Friday Club is a social group for both men and women over 60 that meets every Friday between 11am and 2pm.
Please come and join us!!
Sandwiches, biscuits, hot drinks, games and good company provided.
The group is free although regular members voluntarily donate £2/3 per week to a kitty which will be put towards services or entertainment to attend the Friday club, or for a grand Christmas Lunch.
Friday Club is funded by Currie Community Centre Volunteer led Saturday Café.
The Café is open during term time for drinks and cake from 9am to 12pm.
"It is lovely to have the opportunity to meet up on a Friday morning, especially for people who are on their own, to have a wee chat and use your brain with games and quizzes" Joyce
"It has been something to look forward to on a Friday for a lot of us. It offers a warm place to chat and pass on tips and ideas, play games to keep our brains active and most of all to just be together and enjoy our Fridays, not forgetting the lunch made for us too" Norma
