WELCOME TO WSF
Welland Seniors Forum was set up in 2002 as a watchdog for the concerns of older people in the Welland villages
and Spalding. We now cover the whole of South Holland which includes the areas from Crowland to Donington; and
across to Holbeach,Long Sutton and Sutton Bridge as well as Spalding. We normally hold our Open Meetings, held
five times a year, at the United Reformed Church Hall in Pinchbeck Road, Spalding.
Our aim is to listen to concerns of older people, shared at our meetings or at any time, which the committee
then
investigate and try to resolve.
We work together with local services and also offer a valuable source of advice to local authorities and health
bodies on older people's issues.
We also have close contact with Age UK, The Meadows Spalding, South Holland District Council, Health and
Wellbeing
Lincolnshire, Healthwatch Lincolnshire and Lincolnshire County Council to share the views of older people.
We will share any issues or concerns raised with the relevant people and organisations. We will also, where
appropriate, include Healthwatch Lincolnshire in our notifications.
Anyone aged 55 or over and lives within the South Holland District Council area is welcome to attend the Forum
and
raise matters. We do our best to get answers. You are cordially invited to attend any of our meeting listed in
our
Calendar.
We produce a newsletter for all our members every two months so if you let us know your name and address or
preferably an email address, if possible, your name can be added to our membership list. Membership is FREE!
Just
turn up at a meeting!
Over 25% of the population in South Holland is of pension age and it is therefore important that we try to
reflect
their views and make contact with the isolated, vulnerable and lonely.
You can contact us via the contact form in the menu above.
