The Hoppers Crossing Ladies Probus club are inviting retired or semi-retired members of the community to join their fun club.
Meeting every second Wednesday of the month at Hotel 520 in Tarneit, the group goes on activities such as social lunches, outings and theatre trips.
Club president Yvette Radelaar explained why the club is so fun to be a part of.
“It’s the ladies– just the friendship and fun we all have when we catch up and socialise, we don’t take ourselves so seriously,” she said.
“We’re just there for a good time.”
However, the club does do some serious good.
“Our group helps combat social isolation and is a good place where we provide peer-to-peer support,” Ms Radelaar said.
“We have a wellbeing officer, so if someone’s not the best way we try and support them however they’d need.”
The outings the group go on are as much about supporting the greater Wyndham community as much as themselves.
“We all try to go to different hotels and establishments in the area to help support local businesses in Wyndham,” Ms Radelaar said.
The group’s numbers declined during Covid and are yet to recover.
“We just want more members as we are older and we find the average age has increased, and our numbers haven’t recovered since Covid,” Ms Radelaar said.
“We want to put our club on the map.”
Mr Radelaar said the best way to find out if the group is a good fit for you is to just come along and try.
