Finsbury and Clerkenwell Volunteers
This voluntary organisation supports isolated older people living in Central and South Islington, with the sole aim to enhance their quality of life.
Its Volunteers offer a range of support services, which include befriending visits, telephone befriending, assisted shopping trips and outings, a twice-weekly Lunch Club and help with practical tasks. Many people approach FCV Dorcas for help with an elderly person, including social workers, health workers, family members and friends.
