what is feelgood choices?

Meeting with people is important for all of us.  Too much time spent alone impacts negatively on our wellbeing and our quality of life.

The Feelgood Factory recognises that people have different interests and tastes.  Feelgood Choices is a menu of different activities but all with the aim of being friendly, relaxing and designed as much as possible by those who attend the session.

feelgood friends

It can be very easy to lose contact with friends as time goes by and to find yourself in a situation where you spend more and more time on your own.

The Good Afternoon Social (GAS) Group meets each Thursday afternoon in the Feelgood Factory.  GAS is an opportunity to meet people in a relaxed environment, to chat and share ideas and, from time to time, to go on visits to places of interest.

Good Afternoon Social - every Thursday at 1.30 p.m.

feelgood learning

Are you interested in learning new things in the company of others?

Feelgood Learning is an informal group that looks at a range of topics in a relaxed but mentally stimulating way.  Subjects are chosen by group members and we may then use literature, history, art and music or computers to explore them further.

No knowledge is necessary just bring yourself and your interest to keep learning.

The topic for September to December 2012 will be Family History.  See our leaflet for more details.

Feelgood Learning - Every Wednesday at 1.30 p.m.

feelgood fitness

Do you feel that you would like to become fitter and more flexible but would struggle to do a full exercise class? The Feelgood Factory has a growing range of activities that will help you from gentle exercises such as chair exercises and Otago through to Zumba Gold which is fun dancing to a Latin beat but at an easier level than a full Zumba class.

To discuss your own needs and how we can help, contact the Feelgood Factory. 

Zumba Gold - Thursdays at 1 p.m.

Walking for Health - Mondays at 10 a.m.
