Summary
We are a small group of pensioners who meet in Bridgend Community Centre every Tuesday afternoon to have Tea/Coffee and a chat , we also play chocolate bingo and do some quizzes. We also like to take them out on the occasional trip and a wee meal . To some of these pensioners most of whom are in their 80s, this is the only time they spend with other people and it helps with their mental health and wellbeing.
Description
We are applying for PB to fund our trip to Livingstone Outlet Park next year. The money would be used to fund transport.
Members of the group look forward to this yearly trip however the cost of transport is very high. We use a local company called Marbill who are very good at picking up the older residents at their homes.and dropping them off again. This allows people with reduced mobility to access the trip.
We would require £600 for a single decker bus, hired from Marbill.
We would also like to arrange a meal for members of the group which again is a yearly treat and we use a different restuarant each year.
The meal is cost at £20 per person at a local restaurant for 20 people.
