We know that older people are more likely than other groups of people to become lonely and isolated from their family, friends and their local community, especially when they can no longer drive, when they are not able to walk very far, or when a close relative or friend dies. We also know that more and more older people are living on their own. According to Age UK, there are over 2 million people in England over the age of 75 who are living alone so by running our OPAL clubs we are doing something practical to help older people overcome their loneliness and thereby enjoy a better quality of life, both mentally and physically.
Each club meeting is run by a team of 3 or 4 volunteers, working on a rota basis from a larger group of club volunteers, supported and guided by one of our Organisers. The club volunteers are all local people who enjoy being with other people and want to make a significant difference to the lives of older people living in their community.
The Frodsham OPAL Club meets every Tuesday from 10am to 2pm (except at Christmas and New Year) at Frodsham Methodist Church.
