Monthly Round Up - September

💙 Age UK has recently released their Offline and Overlooked campaign to help those from being automatically directed to an online source or forum for their everyday needs 💻 The older people in our community are more likely to be excluded from the essential services they need, due to being forced down a digital route. Read more about it here and sign the petition to make a difference.

💙 We are excited to announce that Helen Aitchison, talented author and Age UK North Tyneside Trustee released her poetry book, Ramblings. Where all royalties, kindly are donated to us to help us develop our services. Read more here.

💙 Helen will also be visiting our Book Club on the 18th of October to discuss her novel, In the Footsteps of Walker Women. Read more about the inspirational women, experiences and importance of the novel here. 

💙 It's that time of year when we start to protect ourselves from the Flu. See if you’re eligible for your COVID-19 booster or Flu Vaccination online by clicking here.
