Comment: |
The Visiting Service was started in response to requests from GPs, health visitors, social workers and concerned relatives of older people. Most of the older people who are referred are housebound. This may be because of some physical disability or they are confined to home for fear of going out. Volunteers are specially selected by Age Concern. They visit on a weekly basis, to chat, share an interest and perhaps give someone an outing in their wheelchair. Please contact Age Concern for more details, office opening hours: 9am-5pm. Monday to Thursday, 9am-4.30pm on Friday.
