A social club in Colwick is inviting pensioners in the local community to a free Christmas party.
The Vale Club on Vale Road will run the Christmas party nights for the over-60s on Monday, December 13 and Wednesday, December 15.
50 people will be able to attend each event and although the events are free – a £5 deposit will be required to book a place.
Pensioners must be over 60 and live in Colwick to be eligible to book a place oat the events.
Those attending the nights will receive a two-course Christmas meal and be able to play cash bingo. Entertainment will also be on offer with Dave the Banjo Man performing a comedy and sing-a-long show.
The event has been made possible after donations from local businesses and people in the community .
General manager Nathan Woodward said: “The Parish Council voted not to hold the event this year due to Covid-19.
“We are normally just the venue for the annual pensioner party and don’t organise it but a lot of people have been calling us to find out if it’s going ahead this year and we decided to try and run it ourselves.
I would like to say a big thank you to everyone that has made a donation so far as without everyone’s help we wouldn’t be able to put this night on free of charge for the village pensioners.”
Those wanting to book a place at one of the events can visit the club or call 0115878576.
