Recipient Org: Description We are a very small charity employing three part time members of staff. However, with our supportive volunteer base (currently 92 volunteers) we are able to provide much needed support to people who are affected by loneliness and in doing so we help to improve their physical and mental health. Weekly we provide a range of social and therapeutic activities for over 150 older people who’s financial, physical and mental well-being are affected by the impact of loneliness. We work to address the complex problems by providing: (a) opportunities for people to come together in a social environment, (b) weekly therapeutic activities, (c) a befriending service for those who are to frail or housebound or lack the confidence to engage with our support group activities (d) a wide range of volunteering opportunities that enable services users to engage at a level of their choice and capacity. We also provide a volunteer car scheme to ensure that anyone who is lonely can access our services.
