CHRISTMAS IN July was the theme for this month’s Eating With Friends (EWF) program at Deloraine House.

The halls were decked and carols played in the background as everyone ate a traditional Christmas meal followed by Christmas pudding.

‘We haven’t had a Christmas in July before and thought it would be a bit of fun for something different,’ said Chris. Chris, Elena and Charlie are volunteers at Deloraine House who get together to cook delicious food for EWF on the first Monday of the month.

Every month they come up with new and mouth-watering meals for those who attend. EWF is a Tasmania-wide social eating program that has been running for 15 years.

It’s all about enjoying a meal, bringing people together, making friends and delighting in new experiences.

The idea came from volunteers with the Meals On Wheels program who found that a lot of people accessing their service eat alone.

Deloraine House EWF is held on the first Monday of each month.

The cost is $5.00 for a scrumptious two course meal and the friendly conversation is free. Everyone is welcome.

The next Eating With Friends will be held on Monday 1st August.
