We are absolutely delighted to announce the official launch of our brand-new community project: the Airedale Seniors Collective. After listening closely to our local neighbours and friends, it became clear that there was a real desire for a dedicated space where those over 65 can come together, share stories, and try new things. Whether you have lived in the area your whole life or have recently moved closer to family, the Collective is here to ensure that no one in our community feels out of reach of a friendly face and a warm cup of tea.

What makes the Airedale Seniors Collective unique is that we aren’t staying in one place. We know that travel can sometimes be a hurdle, so our hub is designed to be mobile. We will be heading out to various local venues, church halls, and community centres across the Aire Valley, Keighley, Silsden, and Steeton. By bringing the Collective directly into the heart of our towns and villages, we hope to make it as easy as possible for everyone to join in.

We are so excited to get started, and if you would like to get involved in the Collective, we want to hear from you! Whether you have a suggestion for a local venue or ideas for activities you’d love to see, your feedback will help us shape this project into a space the whole community can enjoy.
