Get involved - Join our Membership

Membership is a community that encourages and supports people to meet friends, to share good social times, enjoy healthy activities and improve their wellbeing, in a warm and inclusive atmosphere.
 
As a member you will have access to a broad range of activities, some free and some subsidised, including exercise classes, bowling, table tennis, coffee mornings, lunches, day trips, holidays, guided walks, dancing, special interest groups, craft groups, swimming, singing and discussion groups to name but a few. We are always looking for new ideas and invite suggestions from members at any time. Members are informed of activities in a bulletin sent direct to them each month.
 
Members can also enjoy:

• four editions of Just the Tonic, Age UK Notts’ own magazine packed with informative articles and exciting competitions, sent direct to you
• access to a range of deals and discounts at local restaurants, garages, tourist attractions, gyms, garden centres and many more
• opportunities to become involved in campaigning and influencing for issues affecting older people both locally and nationally
• playing an important part in supporting Age UK Notts to continue the work it does with local older people

Feeling lonely?

Many people in later life experience some loneliness or social isolation. This could be through bereavement, retirement or maybe a move to a new home. Membership can help to overcome these feelings by providing an opportunity for people to make friends at a pace that suits them, in safe and welcoming settings. There is an experienced team of Co-ordinators on hand to support people along their journey to making new friends, with encouragement and motivation. There are specific newcomer events and members who volunteer a friendly face to welcome new people at other activities.
