Keighley groups supporting pensioners are being invited to help each other improve their services and reach more people.

They can join dozens of groups already members of the town’s Older People’s Mutual Support Networks.

The projects are run across Bradford district by Julie Lintern, who is based at Keighley and Ilkley Voluntary and Comm-unity Action.

Groups come together to co-ordinate events and activities, share resources, develop opportunities for volunteers, increase membership and build links with public organisations.

There are separate networks for neighbourhoods around Keighley town centre, Worth Valley, South Craven and those near Bingley, including Denholme, Culling-worth and Wilsden.
