This Monday (3rd Monday of the month), was time for another Coffee and Chat meet up, and with the weather so glorious we were able to also sit outside, making the most of the June weather underneath a Gazebo.
It was great to see some new faces around the tables and special thanks go to the residents who brought donations of cakes and sweets to share.
Free tea, coffee and conversation flowed throughout the morning but on this occasion, there was lots of discussion about health and wellbeing.
This month, we were joined by One You Kent, who provide information and support to help residents keep physically fit, lose weight and become smoke-free. There was soon a queue of residents waiting to take up the offer of a free blood pressure test. One You staff were pleased that so many residents took part an we were also really inspired by the clear message that "healthy changes can start with little changes".
One You run a variety of activities including Walk and Talk sessions, with training for those who want to start a group of their own.
Further information on the services that they provide can be found here:

Coffee and Chat meets on the third Monday each month, from 10.30-12.30, at The Spearpoint Pavilion, on The Ridge. Everyone is welcome!
