WELL over 70 members and friends of Evesham & District Pensioners' Association and the Extend Exercise classes for the over 60's enjoyed a delicious Christmas lunch at the Northwick Hotel on 15th December. 2015 has been a very successful year and thanks go to all committee members for their enormous contributions to keep things going.

The Extend classes which take place at the Town Hall on Mondays and Thursdays at 10.30am have proved so popular that there is now a waiting list for the Monday class although a few places remain on Thursdays. Classes start again on Monday January 4 and Thursday January 7.

Our kind regards to any members who have been bereaved this year, unwell or have been/are in hospital. We are thinking of you.

We have a New Year Social afternoon coming up on January 26 from 1.30-4pm.

This is a ticket only event with tickets available from any committee member.

EDPA members are reminded that subscriptions for 2016 become due in January and early renewable would be much appreciated.

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy and peaceful New Year.

JEAN PARLETT
