As we get older, our social circles diminish, and we find ourselves with fewer and fewer people to turn to. Imagine realising one day that all your friends and family have gone from your life. Loneliness can be cruel, and it affects millions of people over 75 who live in social isolation.
Re-engage is making life less lonely for thousands of older people every year. Older people tell us that our volunteer-led activities make them happier and more able to trust others.
We have volunteer roles in Bristol right now. They range from hosting an event in your home once or twice a year to making weekly or fortnightly calls to lonely and isolated older people. Take a look at the different roles on our website. - Volunteer to meet & help older people monthly: open to all ages (reengage.org.uk)
