Date: Saturday, July 23rd 2011
Categories: Melton Activities & Events
A new affordable lunch club for older and disabled people has been launched in Melton. The club will run once a month at the Midlands Co-operative Foodstore cafe on Scalford Road in Melton, offering diners the chance to enjoy a healthy main course and dessert for £3.20 and the chance to meet and socialise with other like-minded people.
The club is being run by the Midlands Co-operative Society, the WRVS, Voluntary Action Melton and Leicestershire County Council. The club has been launched to help older and disabled people to socialise and stay healthy whilst offering carers the chance to take a break. If the new club proves successful, the organisers are hoping to run it more than once a month. Food on offer includes dishes such as sheperd's pie, crispy chicken or tuna salad, followed by cheesecake or toffee sponge pudding. To find out more and for help with transport please call Voluntary Action Melton on 01664 483043.
