Jennie Falconer, Care Manager at Home Instead Beverley & Hull, said:

“With lockdowns and other restrictions, the past couple of years have been really tough for everyone, particularly older people.

“Older people can often be at risk of becoming lonely and that was clearly even more apparent with social restrictions in place.

“We’re hoping these events will give people a chance to get out and meet people again and to get back into the habit of socialising.

“The Highfield has been kind enough to agree to host the gatherings. They are free to attend and there’ll be some entertainment and games and the pub will be serving food at discounted rates.

“We hope people will come along, bring their friends and make some new ones.”
