Age Concern has been working in the Crosby area for nearly 70 years. As part of Re-engage, the charity will build on those strong foundations, continue its great work, and promote the work of Re-engage in the area.
What’s going on in Crosby and Sefton in general?
Lunch clubs
The Age Concern Crosby lunch clubs continue to be an important feature in the lives of a lot of older people in the area. Right now, we’re looking for volunteers to get involved in running the clubs so that they can continue.
Flicks and friends
Our monthly outing to the Plaza Cinema has become an important highlight in the calendar.
Tea party group Crosby
Our Crosby tea party group is in need of volunteers now that restrictions are lifting and its time to start tea parties again. Please sign up to be the group coordinator, a driver, or a host. If you would like to refer an older person to the group please look here.
Tea party group Southport
Our Southport tea party group is up and running and going strong.
