This project will tackle loneliness amongst older people in the community, with activities including afternoon tea, Tai Chi and quizzes, encouraging people to leave their homes and meet new friends. There will also be a walking bus and community transport service, which will enable around 1,000 people to access social activities across Stafford, reducing loneliness for many older people in the area. Volunteers will be trained, which will render the project sustainable beyond the funding period.
