Pub Lunch Club

LUNCH AT THE PUB - THAT'S A GOOD IDEA! 

publunchclubHow would you like to go out to lunch once a month, meet friends and make new ones whilst enjoying an inexpensive but delicious lunch? 

Sounds like a great idea doesn't it and hundreds of the more mature members of rural communities across Bucks are doing just that thanks to the Pub Lunch Club project. 

The project as part of a programme to tackle social exclusion among our ageing population especially in rural areas where there are few local services and poor public transport links. It's aimed at the over fifties and especially those who may have been missing out on regular social contact.  A two course meal (main and pudding) plus tea or coffee is provided for between £5 and £5.95 in the sociable surroundings of the village pub.


Over the last year or so Community Impact Bucks have set up a dozen Pub lunch Clubs across the county.  The scheme is a great success with anything between 20 and 50 people attending the monthly lunches.

We want to open lots more pub lunch clubs and whilst we can do all of the set-up work we do need volunteers to help organise locally at each new venue.   You have to agree, going to the pub is a pretty good volunteering opportunity!
