NB If it is a rainy day when there is an outdoor destination we will go somewhere else eg to the Natural History Museum;
Future destinations will be planned according to suggestions.
Please note it is a friendly informal group of older people not a formal organization. People come at their own risk. New people welcome.
To attend an outing all you need to do is be at Waterloo Action Centre, 14 Baylis Rd, SE1 7AA by 11am on the Weds.
All places we go to are free so there should be no cost for outing, provided you bring your Freedom Pass.
We suggest you also bring sandwiches, which we find somewhere to have together.
If you cannot come on these outing but would like to be involved in the future leave your contact details with The Association of Waterloo Groups at WAC. Tel no 020 7928 9662 e-mail a.w.g@btconnect.com
