The Welcome Wednesday scheme, funded by the McCarthy & Stone Foundation, operates at Winton Park Café in Bournemouth, providing a warm meal, hot drink, and companionship to individuals aged 65 and over. Held on the second Wednesday of each month from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM, the program recently celebrated its second anniversary, with the next lunch on May 13. Julia Laister from the foundation emphasized the importance of fostering a sense of belonging and enhancing well-being through shared meals. No booking is necessary, but early arrival is recommended due to limited spaces.
