We take isolated older people, 75 upwards, out to a local host home for tea. Each month our volunteer drivers collect 1/2 elderly and take them to the host's home for tea, socialising and good company. The drivers stay at the party and return the elderly home. Groups are 6-8 elderly, 3-4 drivers and meet one Sunday afternoon a month, 12 months a year.
