Heath community volunteers enjoy a royal garden party

Eileen Miller, site charter and community manager at The Heath in Runcorn, and three of her volunteers - Ann Varty, Gill Banks and Eileen Erlis - received special invitations in recognition of the work they undertake at Eat@TheHeath, a club for the over 50s which has become a focal gathering point for companionship, friendship and fun as the antidote to loneliness and isolation.

The club, formed by staff members of SOG Ltd, the owner and operator of the award-winning business park, stages weekly gatherings including entertainment, monthly luncheon-dances and special Christmas functions with daytrips organised during the year too.
