We work in partnership with Croydon organisations and Neighbourhood Care Groups to provide a range of essential support services to reduce social isolation and loneliness in vulnerable older people over 65. Croydon Neighbourhood Care Association (CNCA) provides capacity building, member forums, training, communication, and a regular bulletin.

Croydon Neighbourhood Care Association (CNCA) run a very popular bespoke befriending service providing home visits to frail, elderly, housebound people with complex needs and often a dementia diagnosis.

Keeping Warm This Winter - Winter Engagement

As we get older, keeping warm is so important especially in the winter months. There are things that you can do to stay warm and healthy:

  • Have your winter vaccinations
  • Eat healthy meals
  • Try to keep your room temperature to 18C
  • Keep windows closed
  • Keep moving
  • Wear extra thin layers rather than one thick layer
  • Take care when out and about

If you are concerned about yourself or someone you care for, we are here to offer advice and support.
