Winter Wellbeing Activities (Dec 2025 – Mar 2026)
Folkestone Nepalese Community (FNC) is delivering Winter Wellbeing Activities to support older British Gurkha veterans, spouses, widows and carers during the winter period.
These activities provide a warm, friendly and culturally familiar space where older members of our community can meet others, take part in gentle activities, and enjoy social connection during the colder months.
