Every Thursday morning The Furzedown Project has a very popular LGBT+ Coffee Morning group - a great chance to get together and chat about their experiences, share ideas, do activities and visits as well as enjoy occasional guest speakers.

Last year the group wrote ‘Aging on our Terms’ booklet and made a film sharing their experiences (see our linktree). They also helped host Furzedown’s fantastic Pride Event in June.

The group is a mix of very relaxed, warm, and friendly people and open to anyone over 50 who wants to join The Project!

Managing Long Term Health Conditions - this free therapy session is in The Project on Wednesday 29th July, from 10am to 12noon.

Our series of Talking Therapies for Older Adults are led by specialist health care NHS professionals, and are open to all the community, not just Project members!

There are three other sessions on Wednesday 4th, 11th and 18th of August, covering topics like coping with loneliness and emotional wellbeing.

All these group sessions are FREE and include refreshments. In addition, there are FREE one-to-one wellbeing sessions available for those who would benefit from personalised support.

This is not a drop In session (because of privacy) so please book by popping into The Project or email [email protected] - and please tell anyone who you know could benefit and who lives in Wandsworth to contact us!

Please support Project Cool!

We are a cool bunch of course, but we are struggling to cope with the extremes of temperature, especially in our reception area, where people meet up to chat and have free computer access.

Our volunteer receptionists are really suffering, as in the afternoon bright sunlight floods the area and it becomes unbearably hot. We'd like to get an awning that covers the front entrance and shade reception.

Please support us and share our fundraiser with your friends and contacts!

We’ll have lots of goodies on sale, including cute hand-made toys and knitwear, jewellery, bric-a-brac (including an ice-cream maker, wedding hats and a beautiful handmade bed spread) and lots of home baked yummy treats. As well as the chance to win in our raffle.

Friday afternoons are getting competitive with our ‘International Games Club’ launching at The Furzedown Project!

Starting from 26 June, we’ll be enjoying fun afternoons playing games from across the world such as Carrom — the classic tabletop game of Indian origin in which players flip or flick discs, attempting to knock them to the corners of the board, similar to billiards…
Whether you’re a seasoned player or trying it for the first time, come and have a go!

As our members are of so many different nationalities we hope to share other great games (Jamaican dominoes anyone?) - and of course we’ll also have your favourite classic board games to enjoy like Backgammon, Ludo and Cluedo - bringing people together for laughter, strategy, and great conversation!

Every Friday 1:30pm – 3:30pm, just £3 a session.
We always welcome new members and have lots of other great activities on offer. Come along, meet new people, and enjoy a relaxing social afternoon in a warm and welcoming space!

Please contact the Project if you’d like to join our special Carrom session - let us know if you’ve played before or want to try something new.
