02 Activities

What the charity does

We will support older people, particularly those living with dementia, across the London Borough of Camden by providing befriending, home visits and social activities to reduce loneliness and isolation. We will support families, carers, volunteers and the wider community, and create intergenerational activities that bring younger and older people together to build stronger community connections.
