Carrickmore Thursday Afternoon Club

Public benefits

The direct benefits which flow from these purposes include people learning new skills and being educated in issues crucial to them to enable them to live happier and funfilled lives; Older people being able to live healthier, happier lives through the provision of health related programmes and reducing social isolation and loneliness and

increasing mental stimulation. These benefits are evidenced through verbal feedback from attendees at our events; the numbers of members taking part in classes and programmes provided in a local venue. We do not anticipate any harm leading from the purposes of our charity. The benefit is for older people living in the Carrickmore area. There is no private benefit.
