Drop in Wednesdays
The Drop- In provides a range of services specificially for our elderly members.
The service requires no appointment. Participants are offered a complimentary
light lunch and opportunities to take part in the activities offered.
The key purpose of this service is to provide support and to engage with our elders to help alleviate feelings of
isolation and loneliness.

HIKING IN DEVON
Hi Everyone, Over the last 5 years, We volunteered to manage DCCA's Walking Group to organise and lead many of the planned trips with friends and family from the south west. There are many great experiences that we have come across and seeing excitement in everyone during our 4-6 miles circle walks. We allow frequent stops to view the great sceneries plus taking photos to enhance the experience.
As the weather becomes warmer, there will lots more walks then!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
We welcomed the Year of the Rooster with a community dinner gathering at Sherwell Church hall on Tuesday 31st January 2017. The food was prepared by our team of volunteers who worked tirelessly throughout the day to deliver authentic Chinese dishes for all participants.
The evening kicked started with games and community dances then followed by dinner and raffles. It was an very enjoyable gathering had by all!
