Contact the Elderly

Meetings around Southwark borders. A lifeline of friendship, Regular Sunday afternoon tea parties for people over 75, who live with little or no social support.The afternoons are full of fun and laughter and make a real difference to the lives of our guests.

Each older person is collected from their home by a volunteer driver and taken to a volunteer host’s home for the afternoon.  The group is warmly welcomed by a different host each month, but the drivers remain the same which means that over the months and years, acquaintances turn into friends and loneliness is replaced by companionship.
