Older people in the Rutherglen and Cambuslang area are leaping into spring with a programme of online activities to help them beat the lockdown blues.
LEAP’s programme, which kicks off on Sunday, has something for everyone.
As well as old favourites bingo and Spanish, people can sign up for new groups such as seated keep fit, a men’s newspaper group, houseplant hospital and a repair session.
Taylor McKeown, LEAP’s activity development officer, said: “We are really pleased to offer all these activities for spring.
“We know a lot of people are struggling through lockdown not being able to meet family and friends, so a lot of our programme is about talking to people as much as the activities themselves.
“As well as our free activities such as bingo and our weekly quiz, we have some exciting new classes such as our art salon, which gives artists professional support on individual projects.
“We hope the programme appeals to lots of people and helps boost spirits during the lockdown.”
All the activities can be booked through Eventbrite and full details can be found at www.leap-project.co.uk/spring-activities
