HELP NEEDED FOR "HELP AT HOME"

THERE ARE 720 HOURS MOST MONTHS

Could you spare just a few of these hours at times to suit you? This could make such a difference to both people in need, and the already overstretched charities. It is a sad, but true fact that, as we get older, more and more of us are going to need help, and living in a foreign country increases this need, as not everyone has family here. Most charities are working so hard in the community, but all opf them desperately need more help,  Could you sit with someone to give the carer a break, or just pop in to see someone who is on their own and unable to get out.  Could you drive them to an appointment, do a bit of shopping, or if you have experience, become more involved with the care of people in their own homes? Some people can’t leave their homes without help, can you imagine what being taken out for a coffee would mean to them! There are so many Charities needing help, HAH (Mar Menor), MABS, SAMARITANS, AGE CONCERN, ALTZHEIMERS ASSOCIATION, to mention just a few, the list is endless.  Maybe you are not a ‘people person’ but could help by fostering/ walking a dog from the overcrowded animal associations, or help in one of the charity shops. If helping others makes you feel more worthwhile, imagine how much it means to those being helped.  Most of these charities will welcome any time you can give, and most will pay out of pocket expenses.  In just 2 and half years, we have helped 703 people!!  Please consider it.
