=== General introduction ===

 * An inclusive and caring outreach program which encourages positive relationships
 * Serves housebound or isolated seniors (65yrs +) from the GW area, open to approximately 20 guests
 * Operates 1st, 3rd and 4th Monday all year except Christmas holidays and includes a two course cooked meal and activities
 * This program is organised by a management committee. The costs are covered by guest contributions, the use of church rooms and a community grant from Monash Council to subsidise the outings
 * New guests are mainly identified by referrals from other community service agencies
 * There are approximately 45 volunteers on our 2020 roster; helping twice, once per month or once every two months
 * Leisure Time has four or five outings per year on the 5th Monday; this includes transport and aims to further and enrich experiences

=== Next moves for Leisure Time? ===

 * Ensure that our own congregation has a better idea of what Leisure Time does and about our links to the aged care agencies within our neighbourhood
  * Encourage some seniors from within the congregation to become guests

=== How can GWUC assist Leisure Time? ===

 * Raise awareness of what Leisure Time does and pray for both guests and helpers
 * Explore links between Leisure Time and other GWUC groups to maximize outreach
 * Most of our volunteers themselves are seniors. New volunteers, both men and women, are most welcome for the roster and on the committee
 * Provide input and ideas to the committee about ways to improve or modify what we do.
