Win SAFC tickets and support Foundation of Light with Linthorpe Beds!
Linthorpe Beds are giving Sunderland AFC supporters the chance to win Premier League match tickets while fundraising for Foundation of Light.
We have some carers who come to the hub for two hours and that’s their little bit of respite. It also works the other way around, we have someone who comes to us with Parkinson’s and it allows their partner to have two hours respite whilst the person they usually care for comes to us. Today we’re trying to get the message across to carers within the region that the Extra Time Hub can be a positive outlet for them and the people they care for.
Nicky Maycock, Foundation of Light Extra Time Hub ActivatorExtra Time Hubs is a national project from the EFL Trust and gives people who are retired the opportunity to meet like-minded people and create activities for the group which could have a benefit to their physical and mental health. Studies show that 42% of those over the age of 55 are inactive. EFL Trust’s own research revealed many people would like the opportunity to meet peers to feel less isolated, live well and do things they enjoy. Extra Time Hubs are made possible with the support of Sport England’s Active Ageing Fund from the National Lottery.
