Bingley wellbeing project

Funded by NHS Bradford & Airedale, this project aims to improve the mental health and well being of older people in Bingley by reaching out to isolated older people and getting them involved in the community in some way. We provide a range of services such as:-

• Sunday lunch (every second Sunday)
• Wellbeing cafe (every second Wednesday)
• Shopping trips, picking up and dropping off older people at their homes
• Social events and drop-in sessions
• Trips and activities
• A befriending project, matching volunteers with isolated people
• Computer classes, Wednesday afternoons at Cardigan House 1-3pm.
• A newsletter to keep people in touch
• Signposting to other areas of specialist support and information as appropriate
• Incorporating healthy living advice into activities wherever possible, involving other providers and agencies as appropriate.
