Trosolwg o'r prosiect
This is a development of an existing pilot project to provide tailored home support to older people aged 65 plus who experience social and economic disadvantage due to their failing health and living on low incomes coupled with loneliness. Many report not seeing anyone for days on end and state that the TV is their only source of company. Living in such isolated conditions many lack motivation and confidence and find themselves unable to carry out everyday tasks.
