Welland Seniors’ Forum was set up five years ago as a watchdog for the concerns of older people in the Welland villages and Spalding. We cover an area from Crowland to Donington to Weston as well as Spalding and try to hold our Open Meetings, held 5 times a year, in the villages as well as Spalding. Our aim is to listen to the concerns of older people, expressed in letters or at our meetings, which the committee then investigate and try to resolve. We work together to improve local services and also offer a valuable source of advice to local authorities and health bodies on older people’s issues. Examples of issues that could be raised include community safety, P O closures, local transport, health issues etc.

Anyone over 55 is welcome to attend the Forum and raise matters. We do our best to get answers from the authorities.

You can contact Maureen Scantlebury, our Chair, by e-mail at moscant@talktalk.net
