Services->Wiltshire Good Neighbours
Wiltshire Good Neighbours
Wiltshire Good Neighbours is a new and exciting service that is being funded by Wiltshire Council and provided by Community First in partnership with Age UK Wiltshire and Age Concern Salisbury.
The service aims to meet the recognised need of those in rural communities like ours who need a little help and support in accessing the services which allow them to maintain their wellbeing and help them to continue living independently and free from social isolation.
To this end, the first four Good Neighbour Co-ordinators have been appointed to deliver the service in their local communities, with more to follow next year.
I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself as the Good Neighbour Co-ordinator for the Bratton, Edington, Coulston and Erlestoke area. My name is Lise Griffiths, and my initial aim is to make contact with all of the groups that are working in our community to support them in identifying those who might benefit from this fresh and innovative service that will provide information and sign posting support to those people needing a little extra assistance. I will be undertaking home visits, referring people on to services or sources of local support as well as following up to ensure any issues have been resolved.
If you feel you or someone you know would benefit from the service offered by Wiltshire Good Neighbours, please don’t hesitate to call me on 07541 353401 or email lgriffiths.org.uk
