New
Active Living Centre set to launch in Highbridge
 A
new Active Living Centre for residents over 50 is set to open
in Highbridge next week.
The
facility will launch on Tuesday 5th February at Morland Hall in
Pearce Drive in Highbridge and will be hosted by the Stroke Club.
The opening ceremony will be at 10.30am and free refreshments
to include a simple lunch will be provided.
Local residents over 50 are invited to come along and enjoy the
many different kinds of activities on offer, as well as meet other
people from the community.
"There
will be an opportunity to let the organisers know what it is you
would like to be involved in and to have your say in what the
centre could provide," said Sue Quatermass, Burnham and Highbridge
Community Development Worker.
"The
day will begin at 10.30 and end at 2pm and will give residents
an opportunity to try easy, fun exercise and hear about taking
care of our hearts and blood pressure."
Volunteers
from the Stroke Club, working with the newly formed Sedgemoor
Community Partnership, have been supported by the Regeneration
Partnership and Age Concern in developing the new Active Living
Centre.
