  • Contact the Elderly

    A national charity that has been bringing older, isolated people together for 'cakes & company' for over 45 years. We help to relieve the loneliness of frail older people who live alone by arranging small group outings one Sunday afternoon a month. Volunteers with cars each collect one or two elderly members every month and the group of 6 - 10 members plus 3-5 volunteer drivers meet for afternoon tea in the house of a volunteer host. They visit a different home each month and over the months friendships develop. Group members are usually well into the 80s and 90s, live alone without family nearby and are no longer able to get out without assistance. For some elderly members this free monthly outing with friends is the only opportunity that they have for companionship.
