| Recipient Org: Description | The Golden-Oldies Charity (Goldies) is a social initiative, bringing positive change to marginalised vulnerable people through structured daytime social Sing and Smile sessions that encourage participation and functional exercise. The music is based on the memory- evoking popular songs of the 50s and onwards. Our charity promotes and sustains independence in the growing older population by making connections with local communities, offering activities that improve mental and physical health and well-being, promoting Active Lifestyles and activities that break down many social barriers. Our activities are open to everyone with many participants being older people living in social isolation and adults with learning difficulties and disabilities and their carers. The sessions are also attended by people with mental health difficulties, Alzheimers and Dementia. Through our Diverse Communities programme we run sessions for Afro Caribbean elders and South Asian older people. Goldies sessions, intergenerational schools programmes and additional open community events give people who live in isolation a REASON to get out, make friends and take a more active part in community cohesion projects led by the charity. |
