After which I shall be heading to Wetherspoons for a little festive cheer, If anyone fancies keeping me company, that would be nice.
Tuesday the 10th, We meet at Cancer Care, Slynedales from 7pm until 9pm.
We dont have a speaker this month, So it is more of a chat and share experiences etc.
As always, everyone is welcome.
Thursday the 12th, Bentham Town Hall, from 7:30pm until 9pm.
The usual drop in and a brew with a biscuit etc.
With the Black Bull right next door, it would be silly not to go and admire their decorations etc.
This pub has one of our posters in their Gents toilets and has been very supportive.
Also, I applied to Bentham Town Council for a grant and they are giving us £300 which will cover the room costs for the coming year, ( I think ).
Lastly, If I dont happen to see you at one of the above meetings, I should like to wish you and your family a pleasant and happy Christmas.

https://silversunday.org.uk/event/age-friendly-festival/
For more info.
Alan and me are having a stand there.
If you are in the area, come and say hello.
We have over 80 members on our Facebook group and these emails go out to 50 addresses, yet at the last meeting in Slynedales there were seven of us listening to Helen our speaker.
I realise group meetings are not for everybody, and some have other things to do, But I feel a tad embarrassed inviting a speaker to talk to such a small group.
So, I would appreciate some feedback on the group, what you think we should do to improve it, What you think we are doing wrong etc.
Please reply to
Thank you.
Tim
