Helping Older People Get More Out of Life

WVRS
Social Services are geared to help the vulnerable older people in society. The problem is that there are thousands of others who, all though not in need of constant care, can always do with that helping hand. Be it a lift to the shops or just someone to chat to, local authorities simply can’t meet that demand. The Local Government Channel investigates how voluntary organizations, like WRVS, can fill the gaps in Social Services in Newbury.
