West Pilton Neighbourhood Centre hosted three days of events this month for age 50+ which involved an activity morning, an information event and a social afternoon.
Activities included gentle exercise, Indian dance, indoor bowling, table tennis and silk flower making.
Information sessions offered: benefits advice from Granton Information Centre, Personal Safety from Community Police, health checks (Edinburgh Leisure), general advice (Age Scotland), Cooking on a budget (Barri Grubb) and energy savings advice.
Then ending the week the social offered an afternoon of dancing, bingo and a sing along with a museums outreach worker showing items worn to social events in the 50’s.
Local people were invited to enjoy all of the above with transport and lunch provided each day, funded through a grant received by the PCA.
