The club provides some of Midlothian’s most vulnerable adults with an affordable and accessible opportunity to engage in more healthy lifestyles by providing opportunities for social and educational opportunities in a relaxed club environment. Social activity is a vital component of physical and mental health and wellbeing. Our club provides weekly activities and an external social outing each term. Weekly the club has between 40 and 50 participants (including members and volunteers). Members have the opportunity weekly to attend a cooking class, a computing group, a music group or to participate in crafts and games or to spend time in the club socialising with other members. In addition, the club meets the cost of an annual visit to the panto each December, a Christmas party, an entertainment night around Easter and subsidises the cost of an end of session meal out in June – social activities that are rare opportunities for our members.
