We lost our mum last year and now my dad is thinking about moving from Staffordshire to the Boscombe area of Bournemouth, as this was a place they enjoyed together.
He is obviously nervous about moving to a completely new area where he will know no-one. He says if he's going to be depressed and miss her, then he may as well do so by the sea! Bless him. He says he will try to throw himself into the local community and to get involved, but is just not sure what is available to him.
He is aged 74 but is young at heart. He doesn't want to spend his time playing bingo and prefers to mix with people of all ages. Does anyone have any older relatives in this area . If so, what sort of things do they do to keep busy, what clubs are available etc?
Any advice is most welcome!
