We’ve come a long way from the days when Brownhills older folks activities consisted of the wonderful Mrs. Parsley teaching the joys of outdoor cookery! A great wartime image from Alton Douglas.
I’ve just had a great enquiry in from reader Alison Bishop who’s raised a really interesting question – the answers to which could help lots of local folk, so I thought I’d post on the blog forthwith.

Hi Bob,
Not sure if you can help.
My 87 year old father in law lives in Brownhills. We are trying to encourage him to go out and meet people, but as we do not live in the area, we are not sure what there is in the area that caters for older folks.
I am sure there used to be a lunch club at the flats near Lindon Drive, but I am not sure.
Can you or any of your blog readers help with suggestions please?
Kind regards,
Alison Bishop
Thanks to Alison for a great question, and one to which I haven’t a clue about, but I’m sure readers must be able to help with.
Please, if you can, comment here or mail me: BrownhillsBob at Googlemail dot com. Cheers!
