    Winter can be a very difficult time for older people and this year it is even more difficult. We have a free winter wellbeing pack aimed at those older people who are most vulnerable or frail.

    The pack contains hints and tips on keeping warm and well, useful contacts, a handy room thermometer, some basic exercises plus an exercise band and information about our services and support.

    This is a posted hard copy pack, so to get a copy please get in touch below or contact us on 01254 266620

  • Hold a Soup Social event

    As the days get colder then soup is definately on the menu. If you are a soup fan then why not hold a soup social event for friends and family or work colleagues to raise money for our local work with older people. Winter can be a very difficult time for many older people and with our face to face fundraising still badly impacted your ongoing support is very much needed
