We invited our friends and the local community to join us for a chat along with a cup of tea and a delicious piece of cake. We had great fun over a game of bingo and a tough quiz set by Age UK. The event was a great success and we managed to raise nearly £60 for Age UK.
Katheryn Ranson, Director of Bluebird Care Gateshead commented:
We had such a great morning talking to friends and new friends from our local community, we were really happy with the turnout. I feel passionately about making sure everyone in our community feels like they are not alone, and I wanted to support Age UK’s ‘Big Chinwag’ event to help ensure everyone in our community enjoys the company and support they deserve.”
