Over 55's Forum
The Over 55's Forum, which is chaired by local resident Derek Smithers and supported by Winchester City Council. It aims to provide a voice for older people across the Winchester District. It is made up of volunteer members from neighbourhoods and communities across the whole of the District.
The group meet once a month, mainly in the City Centre. They have identified their priorities as:
- Information services for Older people
- Encouraging volunteering amongst older people
- Assisting with transport issues
So far the forum has been busy with events such as the health promotion event- Rust Proofing the Body, Information Day and Question Time with local decision makers. The forum is always looking for new members.
For more information please contact Nicola Lawrence, Community wellbeing officer on 01962 848083 or Chair of the forum, Derek Smithers on 01962 883980 or email dws28@tiscali.co.uk
