Our project supports older people (50+) living in the CH8 area of Holywell who are experiencing feelings of social isolation and loneliness.
Volunteers provide companionship, support confidence building and encourage involvement in the local community. Participants can access one or more services, depending on their individual needs.
This can include:
- One-to-one befriending – delivered in the person’s home or over the telephone
- Community buddying – providing support to engage in community activities through guidance around venue locations, transport options and initial accompaniment to activities where required
- The establishment of volunteer-led group activities in community settings or via telephone networks, identified through individual needs, interests, and gaps in existing services.
