NO-ONE should ever feel lonely – which is why volunteer organisations in Glasgow are joining together to provide a mental health ‘winter survival guide’ for the elderly, the vulnerable and the isolated.
The Campaign to End Loneliness and Volunteer Glasgow have teamed up to make sure everyone is aware of the services on offer as a difficult year draws to a close.
The groups involved include COPE, Lifelink, Glasgow Helps and the Good Morning Service.
“You can shape someone’s world with good conversation and having the back up of our safety-net alert service gives older people confidence to live as independently as possible.” says Nicky Thomson of Good Morning Service. “Having someone who cares really matters. We’re proud to be a real Glasgow success story.”
