BS3 Community Development

Weʼre raising £500 to treat members of our "Monday Club", a weekly social group for older people, to a Christmas trip. We want to tackle loneliness & isolation.

Story

We are a charity that runs a wide range of services to improve the lives of local people. Every Monday we love welcoming our regulars to the Monday Club, a social group for older people, that aims to keep seniors mentally and physically active. Guests thrive in each other's company, enjoy a home-cooked meal and feel part of a close-knit friendship group. We will close for one week over Christmas and so we won't see our members for a little while and really want to send them off with happy memories and warm wishes for the festive season. Our budget is very tight this year and we don't have the funds to take the group out for their traditional trip at Christmas. Can you help us?

We've done it! One week after our launch we have reached our target! Thank you so very much to all of you! We can't wait to tell the members when they next come to Monday Club on the 25th of November. We will let you know where they decide to go for their Christmas trip out!

We are so grateful for all the donations and kind words we have received, and we are well on our way to reaching our target less than 1 week since we launched our appeal for the members of our Monday Club. To everyone that has supported us already, thank you so much and if you do have the time to share our story with one or two friends or colleagues, it may make all the difference to us reaching the £500 that we would love to raise to treat the group to their Christmas trip. Thank you.
