A DAY centre for senior residents in the borough holds a regular friendship table.

On Mondays, free tea and coffee is provided, along with people to chat to, and sometimes a craft activity to enjoy.

Anyone over sixty can come along, and those who wish can book to stay on for lunch afterwards.

WADE offers support to seniors in Wokingham and the surrounding areas, and enables its members to mix and socialise.

Some simply come for lunch, a change of scene, and the opportunity to see friends.

Others have the early stages of dementia, and can enjoy a day out in safe surroundings, giving their caregivers respite time.

The charity offers subsidised day care, and is open from 9am to 4pm, Monday to Friday, excluding bank and public holidays.

The friendship table is at WADE Day Centre, Reading Road, Wokingham.

It takes place on Monday mornings from 10am to noon.

People can just drop in to join the free club, but lunch, costing £7.50, must be booked in advance.

For information and to book lunch, visit: www.wadecentre.org.uk
