This group is a God sent for most people. Thanks very much to the founder and CEO.
I have been attending the True Ambassadors exercise sessions and social club in Plaistow East London since June 2024,
The club provides a safe space for individuals to meet up and take part in various activities, such as dancing, cooking sessions, massage sessions.
Also sessions that promotes awareness about managing health and wellbeing and digital skills.
They also provide snacks, warm and cold drinks.
The sessions are facilitated by Doris and her team of volunteers, who are passionate and caring.
I have enjoyed coming to True Ambassadors every week since 16th April 2024. We have had massages and been shown how to give massages, also colouring for mental health. We have had visiting Dr’s, Dentists, Fire men and women, Shine who gave tips on keeping your home warm. We have also had people come for Digital Inclusion, and a resident artist. We have started cooking cultural foods this year. The sessions are documented by Sofia and Fernando taking photos and videos.
We had a wonderful Christmas Party and we celebrate everyones birthday.
We also attend an excercise class every Tuesday where we do Aerobics for half an hour then weights for another half an hour, all to music.
Thank you True Ambassador for doing this things, for sharing to us who are seniors. We really like to learn more especially in computer. I really appreciated to the True Ambassador. Thank you so much.
Attending the True Ambassador is very diverse and interesting because we learn so many things every time we meet.
I look forward to going to True Ambassdor every Tuesday afternoon from 2pm to 5pm, everyone at the True Ambassdor are very friendly and helpful. Doris and her Team always comes up with something new for us to do each week. We are an over 50’s group and the team is getting us familiar with AI. We have also done cooking which was fun we were allowed to take whatever we cooked home, all ingreditens were provided by the organisers.
I feel good and happy full of information about health, very friendly people.
The True Ambassador is indeed an inspiration to the community especially as women who have reached pension age.
The team leaders take care of our healthy lives, especially Abbie makes sure we leave the centre with full belly’s and this is an encouraging to us as a repeat business.
On the first Ms Jon’s taught us how to blend Caribbean Jamaican jerk seasoning which I use daily on my cooking or sandwiches.
I’ve recently joined TA and found the club very welcoming. Everyone is friendly and I felt comfortable. The coordinator is well organised and keeps us occupied with different topics discussed each week. There is a diverse mix of people from different nationalities which makes it interesting to hear about different cultures and try their foods when we have food demos. I’ll definitely be coming when time permits.
I find True Ambassadors very interesting and I have learned a lot from them. Thank you, True Ambassadors.

Participating in the community activities with the True Ambassadors has been a very enriching experience for me personally. I found th the True Ambassadors’ project to be a very inclusive project, non-discriminatory caring project. I was opportune to participate in various activities despite my hearing challenge. The leaders and various presenter made use of audio visual facilities to ensure that the needs of all participants was met.
I have learned several skills especially digital skills that will help improve my quality of life as a hearing challenged person and as a older adult.
Participating in the exercise activities at the center and at the Newham Leisure Centre has helped me to cope with some of the physical and psychological challenges of aging. I now look forward to the aging experience with a more positive attitude; contrary to the fear and dread I had prior to joining this project. I now look forward to each new day with a positive mental attitude. I have learned to enjoy the moments and I look forward to waking up every Tuesday just to be here with a team that brings out the best in.
The cooking and smoothies are lifelong skills I gained on this project.
I have met some positive-minded pensioners and just having opportunity to listen and hear their stories has been a blessing to me..
The leader Doris is a God-sent and selfless individual whose caring and compassionate attitudes stands her out among her peers.
We are fed healthy meals each week with cheerful attitude and smiles. I am dreading the void when this project comes to end.
God bless the True Ambassadors Project.
