Calling quiz fiends!

quiz

Following the success of our first fundraising quiz night (we raised £168, yay!) we’ve decided to run a fun quiz during the day.

Not everyone finds an evening fundraiser accessible, so on the third Wednesday in the month, we’re going to have a drop in quiz for individuals.

Entrance will be just £2 per person which will include refreshments, and you can either play as an individual or form teams with others on arrival.

The first one is on Wednesday, April 18 at 12 noon. We look forward to seeing you then!

Due to popular demand, we’re opening up on the first and second Thursdays in the month.

The visitors to our D.I.Y Arts and Crafts Cafe enjoyed it so much, we’ve instigated an Open Cafe and Colouring on the first and second Thursdays from 1.30-3.30pm, with adult colouring books and anything else participants would like to bring along with them.

Or simply enjoy the company and have a cup of tea and chat – it’s entirely up to you!

Get your brains into gear – we’re holding a Quiz Night Fundraiser

The aim is to have fun as well as raise vital funds to keep the hub open – so we’re having a Quiz Night!

The Quiz is on Thursday, March 1, doors open at 7pm for a 7.30pm start. Tickets are £12 per team, with a maximum of 4 people to a team (£3 each) – there are 9 tables available, so don’t delay!

There will be 5 rounds of our favourite general knowledge categories, with a break after Round 3.

You can bring your own drinks and nibbles although teas and coffees will also be available for a small donation.

Book your tickets here – and start revising!

The D.I.Y Arts & Crafts Cafe opens for business

February 15, 2018 The Net Community Hub

Some of our regulars have been desperate to get arty and crafty for a while now, so we’re opening up the cafe on the 4th Thursday in the month for a skill sharing bonanza!

You can bring along your own activity (knitting, colouring books, crochet, drawing pad?) – or even your favourite book. We’ll supply materials for collage and other activities, plus each month, one of our regular customers will demonstrate their own skill, giving you the opportunity to join in too.

The first session (February 22) will see Vicki showcase cake decorations for Easter and all are welcome to work with her. Or as advised above, simply bring along your own activity to share with others, or just enjoy the company.

The session will run from 1.30-3.30pm and there will be a small fee of £2 to cover materials, but tea and coffee is included.

We look forward to seeing you.

Take your seats – it’s time to exercise!

The Hub walderslade chairobics

Our newest session brings gentle exercise to the hub, with Chairobics happening here on Monday afternoons from 1.30-2.30pm.

Designed for all abilities, it’s a happy mixture of dancing and aerobics that can be done whilst sitting down. But if you’re feeling fitter, by all means stand up and move those feet!

Our lovely volunteer Theresa is a dance teacher by trade and she’s dedicated to making exercise a pleasure rather than a pain 🙂

All are welcome and we just ask a £1 donation to cover our costs. No booking required, just turn up! We look forward to seeing you.

Thanks to Kent Reliance Building Society and the Kent Community Foundation, we have received funding to begin a luncheon club for elderly and isolated local residents.

It will take place on the second Wednesday in the month, with service between 12-1.30pm. A choice of nutritious and healthy options will be available, with tea & coffee (or squash) included in the modest donation of £2.50.

We had a taster session last month – no pun intended – when diners had the choice of spaghetti bolognese, salad or jacket spuds with various toppings. We’re reliably informed that September’s menu will include Toad-in-the-Hole!

DATES:

11 September – 11 October – 8 November – 13 December – 10 January – 14 February – 14 March – 11 April – 9 May – 13 June – 11 July.

Watch out also for special events throughout the year.
