The meeting is on Wednesday 4 June at Heanor Senior Citizens Welfare Centre, Wilmot Street between 1.30 and 4pm

The Heanor and District 50+ forum is one of 14 forums across the county that are up and running and supported by Derbyshire County Council and its well-being team.
The forums meet on a regular basis to discuss various topics, listen to speakers, plan action campaigns and swap ideas and views.
All the forums have been helped to set up by the council’s well-being team which helps members with administration and organising meetings as well as providing financial support.
Derbyshire County Council’s cabinet member for adult social services David Allen said: “The 50 plus forums are a great place for people to meet up.
“As well as offering a wide variety of advice and information they are an opportunity for people to discuss any thoughts or concerns they might have.”
