Back to the Future
Back to the future is the name of our re-engagement scheme where we help people at risk of loneliness and further isolation by visiting and accompanying them out and about. Loneliness and social isolation is a huge problem among older people and others who find it difficult to get out and about.
Who is Back to the Future for?
Many people in the local area live on their own and there may be times when they feel the need for a volunteer visitor to come and chat with them. It may be a result of a:
* Bereavement
* Stay in hospital
* Change in circumstances
* Spell of depression
* House move
The reasons may vary, but the opportunity to chat with someone can often help to overcome the problems of the moment and enable people to get their lives in order again.
