Lil Choices Option Counselling Centre holds successful annual senior citizens appreciation day
Arthur Matthews Primary School packed with family and flavour
At any stage of life, every moment is a precious gift.
Almost 300 elderly people filled the hall of Arthur Matthews Primary School for a chance to be spoiled by the Lil Choices team.
Starting up the gas stoves at 07:00 on Saturday September 17, the Lil Choices volunteers cooked up a curried-meat-and-rice storm for their special guests. In additional to the hot lunch, the community veterans received something to wash it down with, followed by tea and cake, ice cream and a little gift to take home.
Lil Choices may specialise in providing young soon-to-be-mothers with a humane alternative to abortion but their senior citizens appreciation is day is part of their greater commitment to their community.
Guests were welcomed from nearby care homes and associate organisations, and the afternoon of pampering was a reminder that they are never forgotten or unappreciated.
