CAMEO
Come And Meet Each Other
Co-ordinator: Judith Howard – 01732 458285
Deputy Co-ordinator: Shirley Hayes – 01732 463554
Treasurer: Moya Grady
Plus a team of helpers who give members lifts to and from gatherings, cook cakes and are generally invaluable in helping everything run smoothly.
CAMEO exists to provide a friendly, stimulating and supportive environment for the elderly of Weald who want to get together with those at a similar stage in life.
We usually meet in the new Church Room on the second Monday of each month. We either have a local speaker on a topic of general interest, normally illustrated, a quiz or other activity. We start with a fun game of bingo, playing for eggs, an activity inherited from Darby and Joan who was our predecessor, and finish with tea and cakes.
In the Summer we have a few outings and a Holiday at Home. The purpose of this is to provide a break primarily for those who are no longer able to go away on holiday. It consists of three whole days during one week in July, where we provide coffee, lunch and tea and many activities.
There is no membership fee at present but we ask for £1 each time for tea and cakes.
Any queries just ring 01732 458285 or any of the team members
