The Lantern Club Day Centre for the Elderly which meets each Monday in Holmer Green Village Hall, is a registered charity which was founded in 1990.

The Club can take a maximum of 14 members each week. The aim is to provide “time off” for their carers at the same time giving them a chance to socialise with other people.

Each Monday is taken up by various activities to stimulate both mind and body and we have regular exercise sessions, games, quizzes and most weeks musical or other entertainment. Our members are provided with refreshments and a hot meal at lunch time. Transport is also provided for those who need it.

The Lantern Club is entirely run by volunteers and needless to say new volunteers are always needed. Volunteers do not have to be trained but need to be able to empathise with older people.
