Bingo with Bob

Our latest activity, Bingo with Bob, had its first session last week and what a lot of fun everyone had. Bingo with Bob runs on the last Wednesday of each month so is next on 26 June. It's held in our Nelson office, 18 Bridge Street, Nelson from 1-2pm. It costs $2 per card. Bob is an experienced Bingo caller having done this when he lived in Kāpiti.

Bingo is an incredibly fun activity, especially in a group, but did you know if also has a number of health benefits including:

·         Improved mental agility: Shifting between focus and the bigger picture.

·         Better hand-eye coordination: Ability to perform visual and manual activities simultaneously.

·         Stronger short-term memory.

·         Enhanced concentration.

·         Natural stress relief.

·         Socialisation opportunities.

·         Healthy competition.

So if you are ready to try something new, enhance your social interaction and even gain some health benefits, then why not give bingo a go! For more information please contact Megan on 5447624 ext 0 or email nelson@ageconcernnt.org.nz
