Dumfries and Galloway Over 50s Group
Dumfries and Galloway Over 50s Group promotes friendship amongst older people in the region, to combat loneliness and isolation. Anyone in the area aged over 50 can come along to their monthly open meetings, where they can relax and enjoy social interaction.
Meetings are held on the first Thursday of each month from 2.00 pm – 4.00 pm, at The North West Resource Centre, College Road, Dumfries DG2 0BX. Speakers are invited to talk on topics, including some of particular interest and importance to older people. The group also organises outings and meals. A membership scheme operates at £20 per annum, for those wishing to join. Membership is not compulsory but subscriptions received do supplement Group funds. Anyone coming for the first time is our guest and their first visit is free. After which they can either become an annual member or pay a day-member rate of £3 per visit.
