"I'm on my own 24 hours a day except for the
milkman. You see no one, hear no one, except for the milkman. Man wasn't meant
to be alone." Bill, 87

Bill made this comment when he first joined a Contact The Elderly Tea Party. Read on to see how we change lives.

As local volunteer coordinators for Contact The Elderly Alan and I
are dedicated to reconnecting lonely, isolated, elderly with their local community.

We put smiles on faces through our network of monthly tea
party volunteer hosts and volunteer drivers.

We create friendships across our tea party guests, hosts and
drivers.

All for free.

We also hear what our guest miss most in life, now that they
live alone.

Quite simply, being able to travel where they want when they
want. Many have not seen the seaside for twenty years.

Isolation and living with memories is miserable and
potentially threatens health & life expectancy.

Providing trips to the seaside, theatre and more means we
need your kindness and generosity. Your donations will be used specifically for the guests within Redditch & Bromsgrove tea party groups.

Please help us fund extra activities and make those smiles
even bigger.
