Make content about: Older people gather for afternoon tea
Isolated older people spend days alone without seeing anyone. A monthly tea party brings them lifts, warm food and conversation.
This story
For older people who struggle to get out and can go without speaking to anyone, isolation is an everyday reality. A team of volunteers provides lifts to an accessible venue for a monthly afternoon tea party with sandwiches, cake and conversation. The gathering gives guests a welcoming space to make friends, while giving family carers an afternoon of respite.
