Social inclusion is the process of improving the terms on which individuals and groups take part in society - improving the ability, opportunity, and dignity of those disadvantaged in our communities.
Hundreds of people walk through the doors of Golden Friendships each week. Everyone is welcome – no matter who they are. Golden Friendships caters for youngsters, those with additional support needs (ASN), those with disabilities, older people, and those who are experiencing loneliness.
Golden Friendships is funded by the National Lottery Community Fund, The Robertson Trust and many other organisations, local businesses and individuals. Your generosity means that we can offer a wide range of activities and services to our members which promotes social inclusion, provides greater life choices, provides respite for carers and maximises the potential of our members.
Many of the members that use Golden Friendships have experienced social exclusion during much of their lives due to disabilities, additional support needs, loneliness or a lack of confidence. By hosting activities, we promote social inclusion. The key aim is that each individual can build their confidence by experiencing joy and happiness with a sense of belonging by being part of the community. So, a very, very big thank you to everyone that has contributed funding, donations and sponsorship to Golden Friendships. Your generosity has been invaluable.
Golden Friendships is a community-focused charity supporting youngsters, people with additional support needs, disabled people and the elderly.
