We provide the following services to our members:

  • Peer-to-peer support

To promote, support and develop local Neighbourhood Care Groups within the London Borough of Croydon for the relief of those who are isolated and vulnerable within the community.

 

Core Values

Neighbourhood Care Groups offer people help, support and information and the opportunity to volunteer in the community.  We believe that by creating links between people this reduces social isolation and enables them to help each other improve their quality of life.

 

Vision 

Our vision is that Neighbourhood Care should be available throughout the London Borough of Croydon.  We aim to establish, maintain and develop a Borough-wide network of active, well-managed schemes, which meet the needs of their communities and are members of Croydon Neighbourhood Care Association.
