Pensioners' Forum takes place on 13 June
Pensioners from across the Three Rivers area have been invited to come along to the next meeting of the popular Pensioners' Forum, which will take place on Friday June 13 from 2pm to 4pm at Three Rivers House in Rickmansworth.
Crime Prevention Officer Gary Sibson will be speaking to the group about steps that can be taken to prevent distraction burglaries. Mr Sibson will also be on hand to offer pensioners personal safety advice and answer any questions they may have.
Other speakers include Charlotte Masters and Nick Denham from the District Council's Leisure department, who will be making sure older residents are aware of the crafts and exercise activities that will be on offer over the summer.
David Muir from the Watford Hearts Support Group will also be attending the Forum to speak to members about the group, which offers companionship and support for those suffering with heart conditions in the Watford and Three Rivers areas.
The popular Pensioners' Forum meets three times per year and regularly attracts up to sixty local pensioners from across the district.
Councillor Paul Goggins, chairman of the pensioners' forum and the District Council's Pensioners' champion, said: "The Pensioners’ Forum is always a thoroughly worthwhile and enjoyable afternoon. It’s a chance for older residents to meet, talk about things that matter to them and get answers to any questions they may have. We have many regular attendees who get a lot out of the meetings and new faces are always made very welcome. I would encourage all pensioners to think about coming along and having their say.”
The forum is held in the Penn Chamber, Three Rivers House, Northway, Rickmansworth, WD3 1RL.
