You are warmly invited to the OPALS (Older Persons Activity Learning and Safety) event taking place on Tuesday 1st September from 10.00am – 2.00pm at the Metropolitan Police Bushey Sports Ground, Aldenham Road, Bushey, WD23 2TR.

Parking is available on site and local buses pass the venue. The buildings have air conditioning.

The aim of the OPALS event is to provide quality information, advice and help available within the local community on a wide range of services available to reduce vulnerability of our senior citizens, to provide reassurance, safe and wellbeing support and reduce loneliness.

Please share this message if you have family or friends who might benefit from learning to help keep themselves safer and more healthy.

All event guests will be seated and served refreshments and a FREE hot meal.

Representatives from a variety of agencies will give advice about the services they offer.

It is a sociable event, and a great opportunity to meet other residents in the local area.

Agencies not giving talks will have stalls that you can visit, to get advice, collect some safety related information and freebies.

The event lasts around 4 hours; please arrive on time to ensure you do not miss out on the speakers or freebies on offer.

Gift bags from “Small Act of Kindness” will be handed out at the end of the event.

The event is targeted to our older residents. If you would like to attend, please contact Terry Morris, on 07740 670 642 or email: terry.morris@hertfordshire.gov.uk with names and contact information, spaces are limited so if you don’t want to miss out then please reserve a space quickly.

All are welcome to attend.
