Activities on Saturday in Cumbria
Coffee mornings, repair cafés, and craft and heritage groups across Alston, Penrith, Mungrisdale, Eden Valley & surrounding villages.
Saturdays in Cumbria offer a small but meaningful selection of friendly community activities perfect for meeting people, learning new skills, and staying socially connected. These groups are welcoming to older adults, carers, and anyone wishing to take part in relaxed weekend activities.
Eden Country Care supports people across Cumbria to live safely and comfortably at home through home care services in Appleby, Penrith, Carlisle & Keswick. Staying engaged in community activities can be a great way to complement this support and maintain well-being.
