Huddersfield Giants Community Trust organises weekly meetings for sports fans, especially of Huddersfield Giants and Rugby League to share their memories over years gone by.
We are dedicated to bring older adults together to share their passion – the love of sport!
HGCT recognises that older adults may struggle from isolation, low confidence, dementia or ill-health. With a keen focus to help combat this we use the power of sport to create an atmosphere that can bring happy and good memories through reminiscence.
Using memorabilia, photos, positive recollections from Huddersfield Giants or local community clubs we use these tools to start conversations, share memories, provide enjoyment and make new friendships.
A free session to attend, with no commitment needed, we get together every Thursday at 11am. Designed to be an informal approach, the sessions are led by you and each other where we share and discuss talking points over favourite memories and memorabilia.
Sessions held at The Zone in a safe and controlled environment, but we also provide the option to join us via the online platform zoom.
