Sometimes life can be difficult for people as they get older. As they become frailer, it becomes more and more difficult to carry out those every day tasks, and get out and about on their own. But this is where our Good Neighbour volunteers can help.

We have volunteers in the boroughs of Crewe & Nantwich and Congleton, who offer their time, skills and talents to help older people as a good neighbour might. They help in many ways.

Perhaps they might:-

• visit someone for a cup of tea and a chat
• help by collecting a prescription or a pension
• take someone by car to visit the dentist, doctor, optician or chiropodist
• help with light shopping
• change a light bulb or do some other simple practical task

It all depends on what help is required.
