Question – I volunteer at a day centre, helping to organise social events and entertainment, but often I and my fellow volunteers run out of new ideas. Is there any organization that can help?

Answer – The Elderly accommodation Council (EAC) is a nationwide organisation which helps people with a wide range of housing requests but also has an EAC Entertainment Directory with over 1,300 Acts keen to perform in retirement housing complexes, care homes and day centres.
