Loneliness and social isolation significantly impact the elderly and vulnerable, especially those housebound due to illness or age. These individuals often lose connection with their communities and nature, contributing to declining health and mental well-being.

This simple yet effective model has supported over 200 clients so far, reducing isolation and improving health outcomes.
