Telephone tree is a friendship building service to bring together like-minded people through a weekly phone call, supported by a trained volunteer.

These are suitable for older people who are mobile enough to go out but need some extra assistance with transport to and getting around food stores. As well as helping with shopping, they give older people, particularly those who live alone, the opportunity to get out and interact with others.

An informal, friendly meet up where we offer support, information and friendly chat.

Join us for a hot cuppa and good company.

Strength & Balance is a gentle exercise at an individual`s own pace.

Telephone/online befriending is one of our most popular services, this is a regular conversation over the phone or online chat with a carefully matched volunteer. This service is available across Great Britain and is suitable for older people who prefer to stay at home or have limited mobility.

Face to face befriending is one of our most popular services, befriending is exactly what it sounds like – getting people together to make friends. Many older people living in their own homes can become isolated and lonely, but with a regular weekly visit - perhaps to read the paper to a visually impaired person, or to play cards or accompany a member with their grocery shop - MHA Communities can help stop this from happening. Our trained volunteer befrienders are matched with scheme members based on their interests and personalities by their local scheme manager.

Regardless of whether you are new to crafting or have been crafting for a lifetime, our craft club encourages older people to get involved and get crafty!
