  • 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.

  • Create Collective CIC

    Create Collective CIC was set up in order to bring sections of the community together or benefit hard to reach sectors of the community through the medium of art and craft projects. For example the first project undertaken is "trauma teddies". Elderly people knit woollen teddies that are gifted to Sandwell Police who give them to children who have been victims of crime, or who are vulnerable. It gives the elderly a sense of purpose and breaks down barriers between the young and the police force. Another project, also with Sandwell police is "Choices". A choose your own adventure book written and illustrated specifically to reduce knife crime, youth exploitation and youth violence by highlighting the pitfalls of falling in with the wrong crowd during year 6-7 transition. A scheme of work goes with the books to allow schools to maximise the potential of the choices books within their PSHE lessons. Future projects will include donating laser cut plain wooden jigsaws of classic cars, tractors and spitfires to schools. The art students paint the jigsaws and pass them on to care homes for the elderly with reduced dexterity or with dementia to use. These consist of 6 - 8 pieces so they are age and ability appropriate.
