TEXT A
Seven ways to support older people in your community
Paragraph 1.
It's important to support those in our local community who may feel vulnerable or lonely. This
includes older people, so we've come up with six ways you can support your older neighbours in a safe
way.
Paragraph 2 - Show you care
Sending letters, cards or postcards to older people can be a great way of showing you’re thinking about
them, or making homemade cards and gifts can help to lift spirits. Many organisations share activities
to keep people entertained at home. Peruse through their pamphlets which will help you to engage with
the elderly in meaningful and enjoyable ways.
Paragraph 3 - Help by running errands
This simplest of tasks has become more difficult recently. If you know of any older people who might
be worried about getting out to pick up food, you could lend a hand by picking up their shopping or
medicine and delivering it to their doorstep at a safe distance. Maybe you could make an extra portion
of food when you’re making meals and deliver it to them as a nice treat.
Paragraph 4 - Stay in touch
Keeping in touch is important. Many of the elderly feel very lonely. Pick up the phone and call older
relatives, ask them how they are, if they need anything or if you can help out in any way. Having a
chat with them about their day and what you’ve been up to can help to brighten their day and help
them feel a little more connected to the community. You could also show them (or talk them through)
how to use WhatsApp, FaceTime or Skype so you can see each other in person.
Paragraph 5 - Encourage them to keep active
Being indoors doesn’t just affect older people’s mental health, it can take its toll on their physical
health as well, with reduced movements. It’s important to encourage older people to keep active inside
their homes. This can be achieved by making sure they still take part in hobbies and activities that keep
them entertained.
Paragraph 6 - If you can, volunteer your time
Find local charities that house old people. You could volunteer and help support staff which will help
make a massive difference to the overall wellbeing of the residents. There’s a variety of roles available
and your time and support will really be appreciated by the elderly.
