Campaign idea: Garry runs a weekly social club

Living alone left Garry isolated and low. Moving into shared supported living helped him rebuild his independence and joy.

This story

Garry felt very low and began to withdraw while living on his own, often going out just to avoid being by himself in his flat. With help from support workers, he moved into a shared home with a friend, where he gained confidence and began looking forward to every day. He now helps run a weekly social club from his house, sings karaoke, and recently celebrated his 70th birthday with friends.

What your brand could do

Kit out Garry's weekly social club with new craft supplies and a karaoke setup, and provide food and drink for everyone who joins.
