Welcome to the Fifty Plus Programme. We have developed the programme in order to provide activities for those predominantly of retirement age, however this is not exclusive so anyone can join in!
The Fifty Plus programme contains a host of weekly activities ranging from Indoor Bowls to Bridge, Tap Dancing to Tai Chi. You don’t always need to book in advance so there is plenty of flexibility. In the majority of cases, equipment is provided to get you started, so you don’t need to go to any great expense to get involved.
In addition to the weekly programme we also offer a range of Special Events including day trips, short courses and rambles. The Special Events section is offering the ever popular Driving Advantage Course, a stroll in the park, plus 2 art days.
Present courses consist of Yoga and Tai Chi.
We are constantly trying to update the programme of activities to keep it as fresh and exciting as possible and to do this, we need your input. Our user group, made up of customers from our various activities across the borough, has been running successfully now for 5 years, and hopefully you have seen some of your ideas and suggestions filtered through to the programme.
In the case of short courses, trips and special events, please call the Fifty Plus team on 020 8207 7568 to check availability. However, please note that in some instances a course or trip might have to be cancelled due to insufficient numbers. If this is the case, you will be refunded in full. Unfortunately, all cheques are non refundable if you cancel unless we can fill your seat. The price advertised might vary if you are under the age of 50. Please let the office know if this is the case.
If you would like to take part in future meetings, have any ideas as to how we can improve the programme or would like to make any comments, please contact the Fifty Plus Programme Manager on 020 8207 7568.
