(UK, 208756) Browse eventsIn over 200 years since it was formed in 1769, The Anchor Society has concerned itself with the care of the elderly in the Bristol area. Working in partnership with many organisations and charities who care for the elderly in the region, we identify people who are isolated and lonely or need help to solve immediate financial problems. We make grants and regular payments to those in greatest need and also help them access services like credit unions, debt consultants, loans, grants, pendants, activity programmes, stair lifts and emergency equipment. We are also partners with Bristol City Council, St. Monica Trust, The Guinness Trust, NHS Bristol and Age UK in a new initiative called LinkAge. This is a multi-agency, charitable initiative aimed at establishing a range of community-based activity services to the elderly in a joined-up way. For more information see www.linkagebristol.co.uk. We provide single and regular grants to isolated, elderly people in genuine immediate need in the Bristol area. The regular befriending of elderly people by volunteers is a very rewarding experience both for the volunteers as well as the befriended. The demand for this service is increasing rapidly and we have recently expanded this programmethrough LinkAge in order to reach more elderly people in need. We also have a number of dedicated volunteers who visit those people in receipt of regular grants and financial assistance in their own homes and fill a vital role of companionship, guidance and support. In 2011 we completed the development of a charitable, sheltered housing project for the elderly in Lawrence Weston, Bristol. ‘Cooper’s Close’ is a development of eight chalet bungalows and is situated next door to Blaise Weston Court – a residential care home run by Bristol City Council.
