Heartlink Community Hub
What is the Hub?
The Heartlink Community Hub is a regular monthly event incorporating a range of activities from advice on heart health, welfare advice, quizzes, bingo, basic IT familiarisation and gentle exercise. In particular, it allows people to meet up, have a chat and exchange experiences.
On average we have approximately 30 members attending, and all enjoy a chat tea/coffee and cake. The Hub is open on the 3rd Thursday of every month from 2pm to 4pm. It is held at Greenford Park Community Hall at 18 Queens Ave, UB6 9BX, situated near to Greenford centre and Southall. Queens Ave is very close to Greenford Road, the Golf Links Estate and Dormers Wells and is on major bus routes 282, 92 and E5.
The Hub was set up in October 2022 in response to an extensive consultation exercise with Heartlink members, who were asked what they would like us to provide for them.
- As background, hubs can bring people together and help them form new relationships and support networks. They do this by enabling and hosting community led activity.
- They can provide early intervention services, helping people to solve problems before they escalate into bigger problems, particularly with loneliness, anxiety and isolation.
- They can offer a safe place where people can come in for a coffee or to meet others in a similar position.
- Community hubs can provide an all-round approach to helping people with their problems.
Heartlink Wednesday Walkers
Just come and join in - every Wednesday 10am
Just come along and join us for one of our local Wednesday Walks, and keep fit and healthy while enjoying a good walk in great company.
We meet every Wednesday at 10am outside Greenford Hall (near Greenford Centre Shops on Ruislip Road). We walk on good paths and always find a cup of tea or coffee and a comfort break at the end. You can go at your own pace and only need to go as far as you want.
Please bring your Freedom Pass if you have one, as sometimes we take a bus before the walk.
