Volunteer at local social groups for over 60s


Recommended Posts

Are you passionate about helping older people stay independent and reduce social isolation?

Do you have weekday daytime availability? E.g. 2-3 hours either weekly or fortnightly.


Link Age Southwark offers friendly volunteer support to older people in Southwark, to combat loneliness and isolation through befriending and social groups. We particularly need help running our social groups in Southwark, particularly in Dulwich, Peckham and Camberwell. We need volunteers to help set up for groups (tables, chairs), prepare and serve refreshments, welcome and talk to people in the group and tidy away at the end. We would also love to hear from anyone wanting to share a skill at a group, e.g. arts and crafts, reminiscence, singing, knitting and so on.


For a list of our 20+ social groups, please see - http://linkagesouthwark.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Full-List-of-Link-Age-Southwark-Groups.pdf


If you would like more information or an application pack, please email [email protected] or phone 0208 299 2623. Website - www.linkagesouthwark.org

    • Thank you for the feedback! Helps to see we're not alone. The only good experience we had was Modern House. Anyone tried Strike/Purple Bricks/Yopa? How did it go? Anything to be mindful of?
    • Best experience we had was with Modern House. The rest of the agents around the area are appalling.... They just want their commission and not interested in getting a good deal. You'd be lucky if they pick up the phone...
    • I’d like to echo the positive comments about Trelco. I discovered that the stopcock on the rising main was leaking and was damaging the flooring in the utility room. Not having seen this thread, or any reviews for that matter,  I picked Trelco  as it was the nearest to me. It was a gamble but goodness it paid off. James was responsive and clear in what he offered. His colleague Andy replaced the offending stopcock and put in a lever valve to allow me to shut off the water easily when I go away. He did a great job, neat and tidy, he was cheerful, friendly and professional. All this within a day of contacting them. Although not an emergency it needed resolution quickly. The price charged was very reasonable indeed, especially considering the quality of the service. I am so pleased to have found such an excellent plumber. 
    • Hi Kate I have 3 medium to large good quality cardboard  boxes for you if you want them and some green bubble wrap to go with them. I live SE15 3AY near Harris Girls school and in all day if you want to collect today or weekend OK too. WhatsApp me on 07538164536 Paddy
