Listen to the BBC Radio Devon interview with our clubs chairman

The Pandemic has not stopped us keeping in touch with club members, thanks to our ChitChat sessions created during the lockdown period.

"As a really sociable person, I was so hoping the move to Devon last summer to be near my daughter would mean I could meet new friends. Sadly with the pandemic I haven't had the chance to meet people in person yet, but the Young At Heart Club has been a lifeline with the Tuesday telephone ChitChat. I really can't wait to finally enjoy the company of my new friends in person. Thank you for making me feel so welcome"

Club members join the ChitChat sessions each week. They can have a laugh and share stories and memories with each other and enjoy playing a game of YAHBO!( which is a unique form of bingo)with other club members. it is the perfect way to tackle isolation during the pandemic lockdown! Yet another great service provided by the team at the Young at Heart Club.

ChitChat is a group chatroom for club members hosted by a team member from the Young at Heart Club and is FREE!

Club member Ruth from Tiverton says "I really look forward to the ChitChat sessions each week, I love it. It is nice to hear so many familiar voices at the same time....Thank you for making my day"
