I'm setting up a new charity group!!! PLEASE READ!!! Let's beat loneliness!!!!!

Hello!

My name is Rachel and I have just volunteered myself to become the new coordinator for 'Contact the Elderly' in Ely. It is a charity that helps to combat loneliness in elderly people by arranging small social gatherings for a cup of tea and a chat... I was horrified that in the whole of Cambridgeshire there are only three small groups, all based in central Cambridge. SO, I am looking to recruit some wonderful and willing volunteers to lend me a hand once a month! Basically I'm looking for a few people who wouldn't mind giving up a couple of Sundays a year (that's right, only two a year!!) to have a few wonderful and lonely golden oldies over for a cup of tea and a chat! We'll also need a few people willing to drive them, but you get tea and cake too obviously!

Please have a look on the Contact-the-elderly website for more info or to sign up! (sorry it won't let me post a link!)

It is going to take me a while to get it sorted, but PLEASE, PLEASE get in touch with me on here or apply directly on the website if you are interested in helping out in any way! There are lots of different ways you can help.

Thank you so much!!
Rachel
