Friend 2 Friend was created to address a growing need for social activities for elderly sisters in our community. Many elderly women may have family nearby but still feel isolated without the companionship of their peers. This initiative provides a warm, welcoming environment for them to come together, share stories, and enjoy each other’s company over tea and snacks.
The tea parties, held on the second Sunday of every month, are made possible by our incredible volunteers, who assist as drivers, hosts, and organisers. Each gathering offers delicious refreshments, friendly conversations, and a chance to build new connections.
Isolation among our elders can lead to feelings of loneliness and even health issues. An Nisa responded by creating a space to enjoy connecting with their peers.
Our Elders teas are held in a home environment every month.These aim to provide emotional support, support well-being of our valued members of our community.
