Apart but Connected 2020 during COVID-19 - Prosiect
Trosolwg o'r prosiect
The Mid and East Antrim Agewell Partnership is using a �10000 grant to support the mental health of older people living in Ballymena Carrickfergus and Larne who are particularly vulnerable due to the COVID-19 pandemic and have been advised to self-isolate. The money is being used to produce two editions of their newsletter focusing on maintaining good mental health so older people feel more connected to the community. They are also using the funding to provide crochet packs so they can create a �care square� which is being used alongside the creations of other members to produce a collective crochet blanket as well as providing volunteers with pamper packs as a token of appreciation for their hard work during the pandemic.
