Connecting Through Community and Leisure

Since relocating to Eaglesham in 2024, Opeka has looked for new and meaningful ways to increase community involvement for our participants.

One of the highlights of our monthly calendar is a friendly and relaxed outing that gives our Friday group the chance to explore the local area, enjoy some light activity, and take part in a fun social experience. Each month, our service users enjoy a short and scenic stroll through The Orry, a beautiful green space in the heart of the village, before heading to the much-loved local pub, The Lodge in the Lane.

This outing offers more than just a change of scenery. It provides an opportunity for our participants to interact with the wider community, gain confidence in public settings, and enjoy a sense of independence and freedom. The familiar and welcoming atmosphere of The Lodge in the Lane makes it the perfect place to unwind and connect with friends and support staff alike.

Friendship, fun, and a game of pool

Once at the pub, the real fun begins. A round or two of pool becomes a chance for participants to test their hand-eye coordination, practise patience, and enjoy some light-hearted competition. For many, it is a nostalgic activity that sparks memories and brings plenty of laughs and encouragement. There is never any pressure to be perfect. The focus is always on inclusion, interaction, and enjoyment.

These local outings help build social confidence and a stronger sense of community involvement. They are a valuable part of our programme, reinforcing our commitment to providing experiences that are both enjoyable and empowering. By creating opportunities like this, Opeka ensures that participants feel connected, confident, and included in the life of the village they now call home.

Join in the fun!

At Opeka, every day is a chance to try something new, discover hidden talents, and build confidence in a welcoming and supportive space.

Whether it’s through creative expression, hands-on activities, or simply joining in, we believe in the power of participation to spark joy and personal growth. You don’t need experience—just an open mind and a willingness to give it a go.

More than just activities, Opeka is a place where friendships are formed, laughter is shared, and everyone is encouraged to be themselves. It’s about growing together, learning from each other, and celebrating every step forward. Whatever your interests or abilities, you’ll find something here that inspires you.
