Hosting a party

Thank you for hosting a party. You may be feeling a bit anxious if it is the first time you have had a tea party, or you just need some ideas on what to prepare for the afternoon tea.

Remember that the Elderly members would not be going anywhere if it wasn't for you and everyone is grateful!

Here are some tips:

• some of your elderly visitors may find it difficult to sit on an armchair or sofa so I generally have a couple of dining chairs available
• if you have any side tables, these are really useful
• generally, the ladies do not like to be separated from their handbags so try to keep them together
• most of your visitors will need help up or down any steps - let them guide you over what help they need
