Christmas, a wonderful time of year. It’s a time for families to get together over a nice dinner, give gifts to each other and watch the excitement of children as they play with new toys and games.
It’s a magical time of year.
But for some, Christmas is not like this. Actually, Christmas is just like any other day.
For an older person who lives alone and has no family, Christmas can be a time of great sadness and loneliness, a loneliness that lasts all year.
Here at Evergreen, we not only support our clients with practical tasks, but build great friendships and relationships, bringing some joy and happiness into their lives throughout the year. We are supporting 600 older people in our community at the moment, but there are many more who need that special friendship.
Evergreen needs YOUR support to be able to expand our friendship services and reach more people in our community who are lonely and isolated. We are looking to expand our services not just here in Bexley, but over the borders into Dartford and beyond.
We are looking for 500 people to donate just £10 a month, or more if you are able, to help us reach our goal of supporting 1000+ older people by the end of 2022.
So this year, please make one of your gifts the gift to help change the life of an older person.
Thank you.
