WHAT IS SILVER MONDAY

Silver Monday is a project that was set up by our Team to help the more elderly in our community, to give them an opportunity to have a day out once a month, to mix with others, and to watch a film. It takes place at the LUXE Cinema, Wisbech, normally on the third Monday of each month

Many people in our community live in rural areas, and/or in isolation due to reduced mobility. Our team help signpost travel providers who can collect and return people with no transport (usually for a fee).

Doors open at 9.30 am. Tea, coffee, cakes and biscuits are served, giving everyone a chance to sit and meet others, share stories etc. From time to time we invite selected partners like Cambs County Council, Fire Service etc. to offer valuable help and advice.

The film starts at 10.30 am, and usually everyone is out by around 12-12.30 when they might go home or visit one of the nearby restaurants for lunch or do some shopping at the Horsefair Shopping Area nearby.

All of this costs £3 and is open to anyone over 60 years of age. We advertise the films in advance on our website. At each showing tickets for the next will be available for purchase or they can be bought by telephoning one of our members or through this website via email.

So now you know about Silver Monday!
