Fundraising is a major part of our charity.  We are always in need of fundraising opportunities and welcome all community support. If you would to get involved or think of fundraising opportunities such as coffee morning, sponsored walk or run, raffle etc, please contact us we will be more than happy to help. All funds raised support the charity and our vision of making a difference for people living in our local community who are lonely or isolated.

We are looking for volunteers to join our fundraising team and to inspire new supporters to raise money, while maintaining and developing relationships with existing supporters.

Client’s Charity Walk

Wow what a wonderful and inspiring day. Our clients were absolutely incredible!. They completed the sponsored walk with Joan walking around the fountain a staggering 41 times followed by a walk around the park whilst Mary and Linda completed the course an incredible 5 times and wanted to do more. They were joined throughout the day by Jess and Stan for a short time. A huge thank you to all the volunteers for helping make today a success, @HickoriesWorcester for giving us free parking and free drinks, @Worcestercitycouncil for allowing us to have our event in the park, the Major of Worcester for coming along to congratulate our clients and to everyone who came along to offer support.
