Christmas lasts such a long time these days and many local services will be closed this year for nearly two weeks. When you're on your own for most of this period, there's only so much Christmas TV a person can take!

Five Ways Friends are inviting local older people and carers, whether or not they are members to two clubs that will be taking place over the Christmas and New Year period:

Monday 29th December at Christ Church, St Albans Road, Watford

The clubs run from 11am to 3pm and includes a hot meal and entertainment.

Participants must be:

* Living in Watford Borough or Three Rivers District

* 55 years or above

* OR a Carer

* Able to feed and toilet themselves without assistance

If you or you know of anyone who would appreciate a day out over the festive period then please call 01923 216967 or email wellbeing@w3rt.org for more information and an application form.

The Five Ways Friends team must receive completed application forms by 5pm on 23 December 2014.

There is a small fee of £4.50 per day to attend, which includes activities, refreshments and lunch. Transport can be arranged for those who have mobility issues for £5.50 per day.
