How do you get to these places? There's no transport over the Christmas period. I haven't a car.

Infoman this is such a good idea for anyone lonely. You do come up with some very helpful tips and advice.

I meant to say, if anyone wants to know what’s going on in your area on Xmas day your council will have information.

We have lots of places on Xmas day that people can go to.
I did it for many years. I started with Crisis at Christmas, then The Salvation Army. The best ones were The Quakers.
The best Xmas days ever, exhausting but wonderful.

What a lovely idea.
Seeing that is is currently only in the SW, perhaps it will inspire other parts of the country to do likewise.
