About Us
We are a small local charity, with a Board of Trustees
We are a charity set up in 1994 to help reduce loneliness amongst local older people. We support older people living in Bramley, Swinnow and parts of Stanningley to be happier
What we do
Whether it’s arranging social events, helping people meet each other, assisting with the weekly shop or just a voice at the other end of the phone - we’re here to help.
Where do we operate?
Bramley, Stanningley and Swinnow.
Take a look at the map which shows the boundary from which we can accept members.
