Can you support an older person in your community? We are urgently seeking volunteers who can pick up shopping and drop to the homes of isolated and vulnerable older people. If you can help please contact Megan by calling 01454 411707 (option 2) or emailing megan.rellis@ageuksouthglos.org.uk. Currently we need volunteers in the following areas: Yate, Chipping Sodbury, Warmley, Hanham, Longwell Green, Winterbourne, Westerly and Downend. |
We have had to make the difficult decision to suspend most of our services to ensure the wellbeing of our staff and clients through these unprecedented times.
Activity Day Centres – We are no longer holding our day centres in Kingswood, Filton & Downend and are looking at ways that we can support the older people who rely on the day centre for the foreseeable future.
Benefits Advice – Our benefits advisers will be working from home and supporting people over the telephone rather than in person. We continue to give Information and advice over the telephone on 01454 411707.
Befriending – Our befriending volunteers will no longer be visiting their clients in person but continue to telephone on a regular basis.
Nail Cutting – We are unable to take any new appointments and have cancelled all April appointments.
We offer free, impartial and confidential advice. Call our friendly team to make an appointment.
An activities programme, two-course lunch and accessible transport for older people at two venues.
We know that nail cutting can become more difficult and our service can help.
If wou have a compliment, suggestion or if something did not meet your expectations, let us know.
Do you have time to lend a hand and help a lonely older person?
