Let me introduce you to The Joy Club. The Joy Club is an online forum. It is a place where you can participate in a wide range of activities Join the club to meet like-minded people and learn new skills.

The website was specially created for us older members of society. Hannah Thomson founded the club in December 2020. She was struck by how – as a society – we are not doing enough to support people in later life. The Joy Club encourages us to learn new skills, have fun and make online friends. Anybody can enjoy The Joy Club even though it was originally conceived with retired people in mind. It is good for all of us to expand our horizons and keep our bodies and minds active as we grow older.

I recently became a member of The Joy Club. We are in the process of moving house so I have been really busy recently. I still found time to join a couple of classes. The talk on “How to declutter” was extremely useful. It forced me to assess all the items that I own and ask myself “Does this bring me joy”. If the answer was no then the item was either sold, donated or recycled. It reminded me of my mother. She used to say “there is a place for everything and everything should be in its place.”

If you are not able to attend a class live there is a library where you can catch up. You can listen to recorded classes and read interesting articles. I missed the talk on skincare but was able to watch it in my own time from the “read and watch section.” The presenter explained how the skin works and how you can make your own natural skincare products. I also listened to a talk on how nutrition can help you to get a good nights sleep.

Hannah believes that “Everyone deserves a joyful retirement.” Become a member and try something new today. How about crafting or learning Tai chi You could rewatch a video, listen to an expert talk or read an interview by a fellow member.
