A 'BOWL for Health' programme has been launched in Ilminster to promote physical and mental well-being in the community.

The free scheme, which runs each Tuesday at Ilminster Bowling and Tennis Club, will also teach participants the learning basics of bowls.

The initiative also allows the opportunity to meet people in your community, the group said.

A spokesperson added: “We are running each Tuesday at Ilminster Bowling and Tennis Club (excluding November 7).

“It is a Bowl for Health Programme run to develop physical and mental well-being for participants along with learning the basics of bowls.

“This programme also allows the opportunity to meet people in your community.”
