Making a difference

Our aim is that every older person feels warm in their home and connected to their community.


We do this by sourcing and distributing practical gifts that reduce the negative impact that feeling lonely and isolated can have on older people’s physical and mental wellbeing.


Our gifts help older people who are cold in their homes, people who often have to make the impossible choice between heating their homes and buying food.


We connect communities with kindness.
