Getting Together Matters

Getting Together Matters

  • Virtual Activities online, by phone & post
  • For people over 50’s who would like more engagement with others during the week
  • Supporting wellbeing, physical activities, social & learning

The Getting Together Matters service operates non geographically, delivering online, phone and postal services to keep older people connected. We offer a volunteer supported model, creating a cost efficient & sustainable service with possibilities of user led activities.

This flexible way of serving communities offers chat groups, exercise, creative pursuits, quizzes, singing and live cooking demos!

The service caters to individual needs and places people together easily & safely. If people feel they would like more interaction with others during the week, we provide safe and easy options for people across the UK.

  • Building confidence, connection, meaningful engagement
  • Peer support from older people directly leading change
  • Reduce social isolation and loneliness
  • Improve mental and physical health

“I’ve met people from different parts of the country who I now feel are friends and just someone to talk to.”
