Just thought I would let other mums on here who might be interested know. I volunteer for a charity called Re-Engage, used to be called "Call the Elderly"-awful name, and they help older lonely people in the UK to get some human contact. They set up Tea Party's and activity groups and call befriending. I do the call befriending- speak to an older lady twice a month and its so lovely! I am just about the only person she speaks to all month which I find upsetting but I love how happy my calls make her. I also drive some older people in my town to tea party's an a friend of mine hosts one. Anyway Im waffling! They are always in need of more helping hands so I ill leave a link here, really has helped my mental health this past couple of years and makes me feel more connected to my town🙋Become a tea party volunteer (reengage.org.uk)
