Welcome to the Age UK Bromley & Greenwich Activities Page! Here, you can find information on various activities available to older people living in our boroughs. Our activities can help bring people together, provide opportunities for learning and give access to physical activities and crafts.

Participating in activities can benefit you in a variety of ways, such as improving mental health, giving a sense of purpose and promoting positive wellbeing. We understand the importance of remaining connected with others and staying active, both of which can be achieved by taking part and getting involved. Additionally, they provide an enjoyable, social and rewarding way to stay healthy and improve your quality of life.

Bromley is a vibrant London borough with lots to do and explore. For those who are over 65, there are plenty of activities to keep you busy. From walking around some of the stunning parks and green spaces in the borough, such as Beckenham Place Park, to going for afternoon tea in one of the many tea shops in Bromley, there is something for everyone. You could also spend time checking out one of the historical landmarks or visiting one of the many historic sites such as Crystal Palace Park or Sydenham Woods.

No matter what interests you, Bromley offers an abundance of fun and interesting things to do.
