Feeling bored or fed up? Love chatting about sport? The Sporting Memories group is looking for new members! Join every Thursday morning from 10:30am to 12:30pm at The Barrhead Centre.
Enjoy fun conversations and activities centered around your favourite sports. See you there!
Sporting Memories is a charity which operates free community-based clubs across the UK and are delighted to be expanding their network to Barrhead with the support of Voluntary Action, East Renfrewshire. We welcome older people who like to make friends and connections in their local area and have a passion for sport.
The club uses the power of remembering and talking about sport alongside physical activity to support older people aged 50+ to live better lives, including those living with dementia, depression, or living in isolation and lonely circumstances.
It’s a great opportunity for local people from all backgrounds to not only share their stories but to also partake in a weekly session that ignite old memories through photographs and quizzes as well as getting active again with a range of fun games and inclusive exercises. And if that isn’t enough, there’s also the opportunity to have a cup of tea or coffee (normally with some biscuits included as well) at half-time.
We believe the sessions are ideal for members who have an extra bit of time to go along to and they welcome all to their sessions! The club in Barrhead is looking for both members to come along and enjoy the weekly sessions as well as local people who have the time and interest to volunteer to help run or support the clubs.
