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

  There's a ?new Radio 4 short documentary programme, The Cat Killer Detectives, that might be of interest to some. It talks to the couple who ran SNARL, and provides something of their account of how the project began, developed and ended, and the effect it had on their lives then and subsequently. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002j5nr

  Hi all, it’s been a while since I last posted so I thought I’d provide a quick update on what we now can offer. Alongside the usual bespoke joinery (wardrobes, bookcases, alcove units etc), I’m now also working with a wider range of veneered boards (ash, maple, walnut, etc.) as well as fluted/reeded panels for anyone after a more textured, high-end finish. I’ve also been adding more lighting options to my fitted furniture – warm white LED strips with sensors or remote controls, ideal for wardrobes and bookcases. They make a huge difference once fitted and really elevate a space. If you’re planning a project and would like to explore these options, please feel free to get in touch.
