Society Inc. has set up a fundraiser to provide their clients with food, care and craft parcels.
Society Inc. is a mentoring and befriending service that is currently supporting a wide variety of individuals citywide across Salford, their youngest being 18 and our eldest 92. Many of their clients have a range of health issues for example they have clients who have been diagnosed with early onset of dementia and clients with multiple mental and physical health issues. For many of their client's isolation is something they have been dealing with for a long period of time.
Since government guidelines have been put in place Sociey Inc. have not been able to offer face to face support to their clients and are offering support either over the phone, face time and on occasion a short conversation through a window. Despite their volunteers having family commitments they are still finding the time to make a phone call to re-assure their isolated and vulnerable clients that they are not alone and support is a phone call away.
As well as emotional support Society Inc would like to offer practical support by supplying:
- "Food packages" supplying food essentials, bread, milk, pasta etc
- "Care packages" Supplying toiletries and other essentials clients may need to support their personal hygiene
- "Fill your day packages" Supplying crafts and activities to keep clients occupied throughout the day
