Sporting Memories

Sporting Memories celebrates 3-year anniversary

This weekend marked the three-year anniversary of Ospreys in the Community's Sporting Memories groups. 

From what started out as a group of 6 people attending the first session at Dunvant RFC back in September 2022 has grown into over 120 members attending weekly sessions across six different clubs.

As part of our Sporting Memories Project, our reminiscent clubs specifically target an ageing population, those living with dementia, their carers as well as those struggling with depression, loneliness and social exclusion. 

The programme works to engage with older, socially isolated members of our community to share memories, re-connect and improve / maintain their physical and mental health.

New members are always welcome to join our sessions. Pop along on the following days and venues to meet new friends and join us for a chat.

10.30-12.30 - Loughor RFC

1:30-3:30pm – Neath RFC

Volunteers are a massive help to the project. We couldn’t run without them but we need some more!!

If you'd like to get involved in volunteering, we'd love to hear from you.
