With April approaching we’ve a spring in our step and with good reason - this month is crammed full with our best events yet! Check them out here...

As well as supporting your lovely older neighbours, make the most of London life with trips to the ballet and the West End, or learn new skills with the animation and mixingclasses on offer!

Following the success of last year's event, we're hosting another Grand National partyon Saturday 11th. It’s no fun watching the race alone so we’re donning our hats, bringing Aintree to Islington and making a day of it!

And on Saturday 25th we’re hosting A Dance to Remember. Learn how to foxtrot, tango and waltz with your older neighbours. We’re inviting the ladies to come early and get ready together. Could you do makeup, hair or paint nails – or are you free to hang bunting and help decorate?

Finally please note if you would like to spend time with Inez, Peggy (watch their film, below) and the rest of our King's Cross crew, the club is moving from Fridays to Thursdays.

And we’re starting a new Men’s Cooking Club in Highgate on Mondays!

If you can help at any of the events below please get in touch. We’d love to see you and greatly appreciate any support.

PS Don't forget, there is 50% off the booking fee if you sign up for The Thames Path Challenge before April 9th. Huge thanks to everyone who’s already pledged to take part on September 12th.
