Sunday Group
This group usually meets on the third Sunday of each month.  There is a wide variety of outings – River trips, London walks and visiting places of interest, galleries, museums and homes.  Freedom Passes, for those who have them, mean we can travel at no cost and most outings are free.  We have four organisers, three of whom lead the group outings.

Table Tennis
This groups usually meets on Monday afternoons at the Cedars Youth and Community Centre. We have players of most standards, from complete beginners to (a few) quite good players. Because it is a very popular group, we usually play doubles. The sessions last 2-hours with a (usually quite long!) tea break in the middle. There are many studies that show that table tennis is a particularly good form of exercise for older adults, and of course it’s also good fun!

Tai Chi
This group meets on Wednesday afternoons at the HES3 at the Arts Centre. Tai Chi is a 400 year old martial art, it has great health benefits and referred to as moving meditation. Practiced slowly, it helps with balance, posture, memory, helps to calm the mind and relax the body. Elliot Jacobson has been practicing Tai Chi for 46 years, is a disciple of Grand Master Chen Xiaowang, a senior instructor of the The Tai Chi Union for Great Britain and a member of Chenjiagou Taijiquan GB. He teaches Chen Family Taijiquan, the original style of Tai Chi. Each class is one hour, consists of Tai Chi warmups, standing meditation, silk reeling exercises and the TaiChi form.
