Our mission
To work with our community to provide a range of support and activities to allow older people to make meaningful connections in ways which suit them best. To listen and respond to what older people in our community tell us they need to make these meaningful connections.
Our values
Caring
Volunteer and member led: we listen to our volunteers and members when they tell us what would benefit older people in our community. We harness their knowledge and understanding gained through lived experience of being themselves older community members.
Collaborative
Collaborative and connected: we work in partnership with other providers, share resources and learning, to ensure older residents of East Renfrewshire have the best outcomes in improving social connections and wellbeing.
Community-led
Responsive to need: we work with our volunteers and members to create and deliver activities which respond to gaps in provision in meeting the needs of older people in our community.
Connected
Welcoming and inclusive: we ensure our groups and activities are welcoming to all and we work with volunteers and members on an individual basis to reduce or remove any barriers they may face to joining us.
