Social inclusion service for lonely and isolated people

Would you like to make a difference through supporting Solace? Depending on your interest and timings there are many ways you could. Be it having a chat over a cuppa, helping out around the centre or for an event, gently encouraging skills around the garden, providing computer or phone technical support.

Carers Corner – The Dig

Carers Corner is a weekly event, ran at The Dig. The Dig is a large green space with an allotment, orchard and inside area which aims to improve access to fresh, seasonal and home-grown fruit and veg. It also aims to facilitate respite for carers, whilst improving access to green spaces and increasing social connectedness.

HostNation befriending

We are looking for compassionate, friendly people in the Borough of Ealing who can spare a few hours a week to befriend a refugee over a three month period – be a friendly face, check in on them, have conversations so they can practise their English, show them the area, help them explore British culture and way of life. We do the introductions and support the relationship during this time.
