Southwark Charities

Our Older People’s Community Programme in Southwark is dedicated to tackling social isolation and improving well-being among older residents. Through weekly lunch clubs, health and wellbeing talks, creative arts sessions, and educational trips, we provide a safe, welcoming space where friendships flourish, and confidence grows. The programme offers more than activities—it creates belonging, purpose, and connection. Participants enjoy nutritious meals, access to trusted health information, opportunities to develop new skills, and shared cultural experiences that many would otherwise be unable to access. By supporting this project, partners and funders help us ensure that older people in our community feel valued, included, and actively engaged in local life.
