The Not So Youth Club
We have launched The Not So Youth Club, fun for the over 50's, £3 per session
Bridport Youth and Community Centre have launched something exciting for our community, a brand-new social group designed for people aged 50+ who want to connect, create, laugh, move, learn, share skills… and most importantly, shape something special together.
Inspired by the idea of reducing loneliness and boosting wellbeing, the Not-So-Youth Club will bring people together through simple, joyful, community-powered activities, from newspaper and magazine corners, table tennis, crafts, and shared cooking and meal, to anything else we dream up as a group. Because this club will grow with your ideas, your experiences, and your imagination.
Come have a cuppa, meet others, and help shape a club built by the community, for the community.
The club runs every 3rd Wednesday of each Month from 11am to 2pm at Bridport Youth & Community Centre, Gundry Lane, Bridport, DT6 3RL
