Regular activities to keep active, meet others and explore new interests for adults of all ages

Events at Age UK Islington are for everyone – whether you’re a teen (aged 16-plus) looking for football sessions with Arsenal, an older adult looking for connection at a monthly park cuppa or a carer in need of support. Most of the sessions are free, too.

Weekly activities include everything from pickleball at Islington Tennis Centre and pilates at King Square Community Centre to Lego-building sessions at The Toy Project. Look out for one-off trips to places like Kew Gardens, too.
