During the month of January the volunteers at East End Flat Pack Meals will be serving the Wellhouse tenants a free breakfast roll and tea or coffee Monday to Friday at the Community Café.

‘Getting together and having some fun’

Wellhouse HA chair, Maureen Morris said: “Christmas is all about getting together and having some fun, and after the challenges we all faced last year, our community deserves this more than ever.

“It’s a busy and expensive time for all, so we wanted to find a way we could support our residents while bringing everyone together to celebrate; and with the help of the wonderful team at East End Flatpacks, we have manged to do just that.

“Initiatives like this show just how much community spirit Easterhouse has and seeing old and young people coming together to enjoy a Christmas lunch is a brilliant thing to be a part of.”

All Wellhouse residents are eligible. To attend, residents must pre-book by messaging the East End Flatpack Facebook page, or email [email protected].
