What your organisation does

Banbridge Happy Hours Club was established in May 2017 to help arthritis sufferers in the Banbridge and surrounding area remain active and independent by providing them with aids to help them cope with everyday. We take them on outings to ensure they are not lonely and have all the support they need and help them make friends. The committee meet

monthly to plan activates and discuss governance. We also run a monthly crafts workshop.
