Older Persons Activity Learning and Safety (OPALS) Event

An Older Persons Activity Learning and Safety event is taking place on Tuesday 27th August at 10.00am at the Free Church Hall, Gernon Road, Letchworth, SG6 3HS.

The aim of the OPALS event is to provide quality information, advice and help available within the local community on a wide range of services available to reduce vulnerability of our senior citizens, to provide reassurance, safe and wellbeing support and reduce loneliness.

If you know someone who might benefit from the event, then please pass this message on to them.

All event guests will be seated and served refreshments and a FREE hot meal; representatives from a variety of agencies will give advice and information about the services they offer.

It will be a sociable event, and a great opportunity to meet other residents in the local area.

Agencies not giving talks will have stalls that you can visit, to get advice, collect some safety-related information and freebies.

The event lasts around 4 hours: please arrive on time to ensure you do not miss out on the speakers or freebies on offer. “Act of Kindness” bags will be handed out at the end of the event.

The event is targeted to our elderly citizens; if you would like to attend, please contact Terry Morris, on 07740 670 642 or email: terry.morris@hertfordshire.gov.uk with names and contact information. Spaces are limited so please reserve a space as soon as possible.
