One of the most notable institutions in Palmers Green is the Ruth Winston Centre. In essence, it's a club for older people, but not the kind of club where you sit round dozing in armchairs reading copies of The Times. Quite the reverse - it's a place where people do things. The aim is to help people remain active, maintain mobility, and live a full life by providing opportunities to make and meet friends, learn a new skill or hobby, keep fit, have lunch in a convivial atmosphere, and much more more.
Despite being the oldest organisation of its type in the whole of England, Ruth Winston is bang up to date. Its latest video is now on YouTube, shot this spring and produced by Martin Cass. Have a watch and, if you're over 50 think about joining, or if you're younger about volunteering or fundraising.
