CVST lunch club
You have the opportunity to get out of the house and meet old friends at our community lunch club. And treat yourself to a nice, hot, well-cooked, and heart-warming meal, with old and new friends and buddies, in a friendly place.
Our lunch club also has support and companionship to older people in store. If you’re lonely, or on the verge of becoming lonely, or socially isolated, come along. The meals are healthy, balanced, and nutritious. Catered to your specific needs. And, depending on circumstances, we deliver the meals to people who are unable to pop in.
The lunch club typically runs from Monday to Friday, starting at 12pm (noon).
