Stories from our places in London

Peter at Osterley Park, London

Peter, Osterley Park 

Taking early retirement was a difficult life change for Peter. He missed the routine of going to work, and the connections and friendships he had there. All this changed when Peter got his dogs. Through regular walks at Osterley Park in west London he gets to socialise with other walkers, which is a source of great joy and happiness for him.

Margaret at Sutton House

Margaret, Sutton House 

Margaret has found friendship and fun at Sutton House in East London. As part a group for the over 55s, Margaret keeps busy and shares her love of dancing, socialising and art.
