Newbold Women’s Group Meeting May 2016
The group met on May 4th in the Parish Room where we remembered Maureen Ashton in our prayers as she has recently lost her husband.
Our speaker was Katherine Wilson, an information road show officer from AGE UK Derbyshire. She gave an excellent and informative presentation detailing how their organisation can help to improve the quality of life for older people in Derbyshire. Topics as diverse as Power of Attorney and awareness raising regarding scams were covered as well as how to receive confidential advice to make the difference between living life and just managing.
The charity can be contacted by telephone (017737768240) where a trained and experienced advisor will discuss any concerns you or a family member or friend may have. Further details can be found on their website www.ageuk.org.uk/derbyandderbyshire
Next month we are holding a Summer Celebration in The Eyre Chapel on Wednesday 1st June at 7pm. and on Wednesday 6th July we are to have a canal trip and refreshments at the Hollingwood Hub.
