The project will expand their existing weekly Covid-secure lunch and coffee clubs between January and March 2021 to provide for a further 40 people each fortnight directly and 30 carers indirectly to respond to increased demand for such services which has arisen during the pandemic. Grant funding will be used to cover costs of the project including staff, transport costs, volunteer expenses, venue hire, and food costs. This project will significantly increase the number of vulnerable and isolated older people who receive vital support during the pandemic. The people ADCA aims to support within the clubs are lonely, suffer from depression, anxiety or dementia or are carers who need a short break from caring.
