In the charity's own words
The Welbeloved Club arranges a full Sunday lunch once a month for elderly people who are lonely and / orsocially isolated. About a hundred people come to Sawbridgeworth Memorial Hall, Herts (or are driven there and back as necessary) where the lunch is cooked, served and cleared away by volunteers. This facilitates social interaction in a comforting environment.
