Chaseview Residential and Nursing Home in Rush Green will host a “Communi-tea party” for older people later this month.

It’s part of Bupa’s Communi-tea Week, a seven-day campaign run by the private healthcare firm to help tackle the problems of loneliness and isolation among the elderly.

Entertainer Billy Teeny will appear at the party, which takes place on Wednesday, April 24, from 2.30pm.

Anyone who lives in the local area is welcome. The home is off Dagenham Road. Call 0208 517 1436 for further details.
