We’ve been collaborating recently with our neighbours at Wandsworth Common Avery Care and they’ve kindly gifted free hair cuts to some of our clients who cannot fund or get to a hairdresser 🩷 #agewellinwandsworth https://lnkd.in/exEUU6zg

We’d like to give a shout out to Esme Fiennes, who is running in the Royal Parks Half Marathon for our charity. Age UK Wandsworth is a small, local charity. We aren’t funded to operate by a national charity or by local government, so volunteers who fundraise for us like this can make all the difference! Thank you, Esme! https://lnkd.in/eKgCk6U7

Delighted that we could offer a grant for this amazing tea party to bring older people together 🥰
The Happiest Day of the Year! Thank you so much to all our guests for coming to spend the afternoon with us at the beautiful Home Community Café CIC this week for our 3rd Annual Mad Hatter’s Tea Party. The High Tea that was lovingly created by Meg Fry, and her dedicated Home Café Tea was delicious and enjoyed by guests, volunteers, staff and our guest of honour, Deputy Mayor of Wandsworth finna Ayres. Thank you to our Deputy Mayor for choosing the winners of our Best Hat competition, of which choir member Leila was one! The sun was shining and there was even entertainment from incredible pianist Howard, plus an appearance from our WANDSWORTH COMMUNITY TRANSPORT Choir, expertly led by our guitar playing Managing Director, Manuel Button. Plus a free raffle for all our guests to take part in with lots of locally donated prizes. Massive thank you to all our staff and volunteers for making this event possible and so much fun. We love this event it is always well supported by our shared community, this year we are lucky enough to have achieved a grant to host it, from Age UK Wandsworth, from their Wandsworth Borough Council Age Well Central Grant Fund. But the fun doesn’t stop here, we have lots of great trips scheduled for the summer including lunches and day trips. Plus our popular Sainsbury's ShopMobility shopping service that supports local people to come and shop independently. We are proud Community Transport Association members and always deliver our vital community services by being 'more than just transport'. Want more information? Visit our new look website… Huge thank you to Steph Gray for doing such an incredible job on this, amazing work and our team loved working with him. https://wctbus.org.uk/ Have a great day all, but do mind the puddles… #thankyou #supportlocal #cta #morethantransport #fridaymotivation #ageukwandsworth #wandsworth #wandsworthboroughcouncil #wandsworthcommunitytransport
