Falmouth Age UK Day Centre
People: Improving people’s mental wellbeing
We aim to enable trips for older people with disabilities or barriers to going out on an adapted mini-bus. We will go to local places to socialise, eat out and rejoin the community after Covid.
About this cause
We are a day centre/social club in Falmouth (Age UK Cornwall) supporting people with various abilities to join in a social setting with lots of activities, information and with transport via our volunteer drivers and EV car delivering hot meals to people at home. The centre has staff and volunteers who offer an inclusive, friendly environment that supports individuals and their families/carers.
How this cause brings people in the community together
We aim to help individuals regain confidence to go out and reconnect with the community. The group will help people form new friendships and feel positive about visiting local places, gaining knowledge and promoting emotional wellbeing. These trips will be fun, led by the users on where to go and supportive of people's abilities.
