Local Groups in Bromley

Sometimes a local group is all you need to seek advice, meet new faces, learn a new skill, or simply join in with your community for a sense of belonging.

Our Never Alone programme is designed to provide support for loneliness and other emotional and practical needs plus promote general wellbeing. We have recommendations to local groups who may be able to help you. Finding the right one that meets your needs or interests can be very fulfilling and truly boost your mood.

Social

Friendly, welcoming social groups can be relaxed and informal and offer the chance to chat and build new friendships.

We recommend local social groups and clubs for women and men which provide entertainment, conversation and a range of social activities.

Our Community Hubs are a safe place where older people can socialise, make friends and take part in fun activities.

Our activities include quizzes, craft events, guest speakers, outings to local places of interest, and board games – such as scrabble, dominos or cards – as well as a cup of tea and a nice chat.
