United Church Wotton under Edge

Luncheon Club

The Luncheon Club holds a lunch on the first Wednesday of every month 'for those who normally eat alone'.

 

The Club has been running now once a month for many years. There is a fairly regular clientele, but since the majority are elderly or infirm inevitably there are a few missing each month. We usually seat between twenty five and thirty.

By no means all of them are from our Church - indeed for some of our members this is the only link they now have with any church.

Unfortunately Joyce Gault, the organiser, has recently undergone treatment for cancer, and obviously can no longer run the Club alone. Marion Smith has volunteered to support Joyce, and they now run the Club together.

The food is produced by a rota of excellent cooks from the Church, and the comments on the quality of the food are always highly complimentary - even awestruck on occasion. There are other important helpers who wash up, clear up, and provide transport for the more infirm of our guests.

We look forward to the Club continuing to meet for as long as there are people who normally eat alone, and who are willing to share each others' company.
