What is it?

Leisure Time is a friendly day out for lonely or isolated seniors from within our congregaton or from the wider community. Our guests are served morning tea and a 2-course lunch and enjoy happy company with new friends. Activities are interested and varied, eg. games, speakers, craft, music, as well as about 4 outings per year and a Christmas party. Guests are collected from their homes and delivered home by our volunteer drivers. All volunteers have police checks, organised by Leisure Time, at no cost.

When does it meet?

Every Monday, except public holidays and the Christmas break. Hours are 10.30am - 2pm

Who meets?

Our guests are isolated or lonely seniors, usually over 60 yrs, who are keen to mix with others. We have about 22 guests on our list at any time, with average attendance 19.

How is it paid for?

Guests make a $7/wk contribution, or $15 when there is an outing.

How does the church contribute?

Leisure Time is run entirely by volunteers from GWUC who help once per month as drivers, cooks or hosts. The church office is used for photocopying.

The brief Annual Reports are available for 2012,2011, 2010 and 2009.
