On Thursday, June 5, at noon, at My Place Restaurant, 8 Queen Street, Friends of Newtown Seniors will host a planning session to help local residents whose spouses have Alzheimer’s/dementia go out for a few hours without the worry of their loved ones being alone.

FONS Chore Services Coordinator Bev Bennett-Schaedler will host the session, “It’s Time For Yourself (It will be Okay!)”

Retired and active nurses, physical therapists, EMT staff, and other medically trained adults seeking to help and volunteer a few hours a month are invited to help with the organizing of a much needed service.

Reservations are requested and available by calling 203-430-0633.
