Senior Citizens Party

Every year, in September, Crofton Lions Club organise a "Senior Citizens Party". This year the event was held on Saturday 3rd September 2011 in the Crofton Community Centre.     And the plan is to organise another in September of next year and, perhaps, other special events in between.

Our aim, as ever, is to offer an afternoon of entertainment and companionship mainly to elderly residents who live alone.    But, if there is sufficient space, any senior citizen in the Crofton Ward (Stubbington, HillHead and Peel Common) is welcome to join us for the Party.

Special Guests on this occasion were the Mayor and Mayoress of Fareham, Cllr Trevor Cartwright MBE and Mrs Ruth Cartwright here being met at the door by unofficial 'Greeters' Craig and Amy, two children of members.
