Monday Lunchers


We are a group of people who, mainly, live on our own but appreciate a meal out with others. This can be difficult if you have no one to share a meal with.

We have three groups, which meet on the second, third and fourth Monday of the month (although this can vary on occasions), at a local cafe and numbers vary from 10 to 20 people.

All members receive a ‘phone call the week before inviting them to come along to the chosen venue. Each person chooses what they want to eat, from a scone to a full meal.

The chatter round the table is a pleasure to hear! Anyone is welcome to join us, whether you come to church or not. Joining the group can be a careful first step after a bereavement.

If you haven’t been before or would like more details please contact us by using the Contact page on this website and we will get in touch.
