Age Concern Chelmsford
Social isolation is a big issue particularly for elderly or disabled people. Many of our guests live alone and may not see family and friends as often as they would like. Loneliness can have serious effects on a person’s health. Age Concern Chelmsford exists to support older people within the local community, connecting them to each other over some healthy, nutritious food or through other social events. This can be the key to staying active, continuing to enjoy life and living independently.
