Here's an endorsement from one of our volunteers:
David B from Whitley Bay said:
I’m looking forward to meeting up with my friends from North Tyneside Carers Centre, Bereaved Carers "Moving on Together" project, which commenced last Autumn.
The highlight of our first three months was getting together in person for Walking Tennis. Although we have done lots together on ZOOM it was nice to meet real people. The fresh air, friendly competitive spirit and gentle exercise did us all good on a lovely sunny day, and we have three further sessions to follow after Easter.
