We know how many people are understandably anxious about socializing again, and we know how much harder it is for older people who have been shielding, may have been feeling isolated or face problems with their mobility.
We need your help to support people regain their confidence. Get out and about again.
Could you give someone in your community a weekly call, or even go with someone to a local activity?
We would offer you training and support and let you know about local activities and opportunities. You would be part of a team of people helping older people in Bristol get their lives back.
If you have 2 hours a week you could offer we would love to hear from you.
Everyone needs a helping hand sometimes.
