ISOLATED elderly people in Dunblane enjoyed an afternoon of tea, cake and entertainment provided by the local Boys' Brigade.
The 25th Stirling (Dunblane) company welcomed to Dunblane Cathedral Hall a group of 10 guests and six volunteers from the local Contact the Elderly group.
Lorna Dunbar, support officer at Contact the Elderly, said: “The boys provided a fantastic afternoon for our guests and volunteers.
“The food and entertainment were great but best thing was the welcoming atmosphere we received.
“Bringing the generations together in this way is lovely to see and we look forward to enjoying an afternoon with the group again soon.”
It is hoped the event will become an annual opportunity for older people to get out and socialise.
Contact the Elderly organises monthly events on Sundays and is currently looking to start a new group in Stirling.
