We also work with young people to provide work placement opportunities, volunteering and accreditation. We work locally with youth clubs and schools to develop intergenerational projects that help build a better understanding between young and old in local communities.
Why the community needs us
Our aim is to empower older people to make their own choices with regard to their own health and wellbeing. We do that by delivering a wide variety of activities, information days i.e. Falls Prevention Awareness Day, Services Available to Older People Day etc. We listen to our beneficiaries and develop our services to meet local needs. Training is also provided to give people confidence, build self esteem and reduce the isolation of many older people.
