Soho/Victoria Friends and Neighbours
Our aim is to help people to help themselves in saving money, reducing isolation, health and well-being, dealing with every day life and increasing their networks. Our community based service works with older people to develop their skills to live more independent life. We hold regular drop in sessions, make contact with residents in schemes and talk to people over the phone, with some home visits carried out. Our approach is tailored to the individuals needs and aspirations. We deliver bespoke training to help people to become more independent in their everyday life.
