Starting SONGS and SMILES Goldies sessions again soon!​
On this page you will find details of our Goldies daytime singing and activity sessions across England before we were forced to close by Covid in March 2020. We are working hard with our partners and organisations to re-start a number of sessions (hopefully in September of this year, 2021.) If you are looking for information on ANY Goldies sessions in England please call the office on 01761 470006 for starting information. Everyone is welcome at Goldies and in the months and years ahead we hope to introduce MORE new sessions in different areas of England.
 
Prior to Lockdown there were over 70 dedicated freelance session leaders and an increasing number of volunteers who attended their local Goldies session. Volunteers are vitally important as they support the session leader in many practical ways - making teas or serving squash, helping our Goldies to find the songs in their song books and of course, singing along themselves!
 
If you would like to get involved with Goldies – help us to start a new session – would like to be a session leader, or could support us as a volunteer then please contact our founder, Grenville Jones on:
 
 grenville@golden-oldies.org.uk or call 01761 470006


In Wales as Goldies Cymru we also have a number of daytime Sing and Smile sessions. Later this year we hope to restart some of the sessions with more following in the months ahead. For Goldies sessions in Wales, please see:
