The greatest gift you can give is you. Spend some time with people you love.

One of the best things about working in care is hearing the stories people have to tell. But also to be someone who offers companionship to people who are lonely. http://bit.ly/2PzJjJx

Living alone isn't easy but Christmas can make it worse. If you are able to reach out to someone this year, please do it.

Audrey, 70, from North East England spent over 20 years being alone at Christmas, and at all other times of year too, until a visit from a volunteer called Sue changed her life.
For years, Audrey cared for her brother, husband, and son, who each had serious health problems. In her 50s, they sadly all passed away, which made life for Audrey a real struggle. She was on her own. She suffered depression which lasted for years and years. Days and weeks would go by, and she wouldn’t see anybody, especially around Christmas time. It was just her and her dogs, year after year, tormented by long dark nights.

At Christmas, many of us think of theatre for a festive night of entertainment. How about a trip to a vintage cinema? There are some wonderful old cinemas that are steeped in history to choose from. http://bit.ly/2Gra0RB
