It's time to book your tickets for the new season of our Healthier Happier Connected Creative events programme at Retford Library and Inspire Hucknall Library ! 🎟️

The programme is designed specifically with older adults in mind, and includes three different events which take place monthly at both libraries: Songs & Scones, Connect & Create, and Mind & Movement!

Each of these events in turn welcomes older people (including those with dementia and their carers), and their friends and families to enjoy live music, get creative, and take part in light exercise, in order to keep our communities ageing healthily and happily 🤩

These events invite older adults to socialise and experience culture in a friendly and accessible way, led by professional artists and trainers, and fuelled by free refreshments 🫖🍪

Tickets are now bookable for the next season of events, and already selling fast ⭐

Why not block-book tickets for yourself and your friends so you don't miss out?

To find out more about these events and book your place, head to: inspireculture.org.uk/HealthierHappier.

The Healthier Happier Connected Creative events programme is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England , and in partnership with Your Health Notts .
