Helping people continue living the lives they enjoy, in the homes and communities they love.

Harris James Lounges | First Lounge: 12 January 2027

I'd love more reasons to look forward to the week.

Life should never stop feeling worth looking forward to.

Beautiful places. Interesting people. Good conversation. Relaxed lunches and experiences worth putting in the diary.

Harris James Lounges are being created for people who believe there's still plenty to enjoy, discover and look forward to.

Not a day centre. Not an activity group. Something altogether more interesting.

Who Lounges is for

Does this sound like you?

“I'd like to meet new people. Just not at an older people's group.”

“I enjoy my own company. I'd just like a few more interesting options.”

“I'd happily go for lunch if the company was good.”

“I want something in the diary that isn't an appointment.”

You don't have to be lonely to want more from your week.

Imagine the experience

We don't think later life needs more activities.We think it needs better invitations.

Imagine somewhere you'd genuinely look forward to visiting.

Coffee worth lingering over. Lunch with interesting company. A guest speaker who gives everyone something to talk about. New faces becoming familiar ones.

Some days there might be something special happening. Other days, simply somewhere lovely to spend time. The difference is that you choose to be there because you want to be.

Somewhere you'd go even if nobody told you it was good for you.

What could be in the diary?

Something worth putting in the diary.

Lunch with...

Relaxed lunches with interesting guests and good conversation.

Behind the scenes

Stories, access and experiences offering a different perspective.

An expert's eye

Interesting people sharing what they know and love.

Simply good company

Coffee, lunch and the pleasure of spending time somewhere welcoming.

These are ideas shaping the Lounges experience, not confirmed events or programmes.

Why Harris James Lounges?

Because independence is about more than managing everyday life.

It's also about having places you want to go, people you enjoy seeing and experiences that make life interesting.

Harris James was created around a simple belief: people should be able to continue living the lives they love, on their terms, for as long as possible. Lounges brings that belief into the social side of life.

We're not creating somewhere people are sent because of their age. We're creating somewhere people choose because they genuinely want to be there.

Life should still contain new people, new places and new things to look forward to.

Our Lounges & Venues

Beautiful places. Good company. Something to look forward to.

The setting matters. Somewhere you feel comfortable arriving, where conversation comes naturally and spending time together feels like a pleasure rather than an obligation.

Our Lounges bring people together in carefully chosen venues, creating opportunities for new connections, familiar faces and experiences worth making time for.
