Contact the Elderly

--------------------------------------

Would you like to become a volunteer and help your local community...?

--------------------------------------

Contact the Elderly is a national charity which works to reduce isolation and loneliness among housebound people over the age of 70, by organising traditional afternoon teas.

The charity currently has more than 310 groups in England, Scotland and Wales, which run purely with the help of local community volunteers.  These groups reach out to more than 2500 isolated elderly people living on their own, who have little or no support from family or friends.

--------------------------------------

Contact the Elderly has been in existence for more than 41 years but, despite the huge number of volunteers, it is not a very well known charity.

There are a number of well established Contact the Elderly groups in the Newham area, but they are facing an acute shortage of drivers and hosts.  This poses a real threat to the groups and the isolated older people they support.

If new volunteers do not come forward, older people would be deprived of their monthly afternoon tea, for many of whom this is the only time they are able to leave the house.

--------------------------------------

If you would like to help the elderly people in Newham, you can volunteer to be either a driver or host...

As a driver you would spend a few hours on one Sunday afternoon each month taking elderly people to the nearby tea party.

A host will just be required to host a tea party once ot twice a year for a couple of hours on a Sunday afternoon.

--------------------------------------

Alternatively, if you would like to make a donation to the charity, please visit the website (below).
