Branch Manager of Brendoncare Club Bournemouth and Poole, Tony Hanson, said: "Our clubs in Poole and Bournemouth are proving to be very popular. They are devoted to giving older people the opportunity to meet new friends and enjoy a variety of activities including speakers, entertainers, quizzes and club outings. Our aim is to help older people maintain their independence, feel more fulfilled, improve their quality of life and have fun! We are constantly looking to add new clubs throughout the county and to maintain and support the activities and interests of the individuals within the existing clubs."
