    My mother is living in greystones, for the first time in over 40 years she is living by herself, are there any craft groups, get togethers, coffee mornings etc aimed at the elderly, I'm struggling to get her out of the house and socialise at all. It's getting to a stage that if I have to grad her kicking and screaming I will.

    Cheers

    There is a very strong active retirement group meet in Greystones. Contact St. Killian's Hall down beside the Holy Rosary Church.
    I think they are called "Greystones Active Retirement"

    Would she be interested nin playing bridge? That's very social and there are beginners classes available in the Greystones Bridge Centre, between the Health Centre and the Fire Station

    She could try the ICA. They meet on the second Monday night of every month and seem to have plenty of activities available, including a craft afternoon on Thursdays if she likes crafts. The meetings are held in the Swann Hall, St Patricks Church, Church Road. She won't be short of things to do in a Greystones. 😄
