I AM concerned about the aged in our highway area.
I think that there must be many lonely elders in lockdown who might just need someone to talk so that they know they are not alone in this.
I would like to help in some way.
I am a pensioner and my income has been from the SASFA keep fit/ dancercise classes I hold for 50s and over.
I am missing my classes and the lovely ladies who attend who are full of fun and friendship.
I am a pensioner so financial aid won’t be how I can help .If a relevant NGO or organisation who works with seniors can pls contact me I am happy to help in some way, even chatting to lonely people on the phone.
