Our Mission:
To provide a little respite from the loneliness endured by senior citizens living alone within the Northern Lincolnshire, by way of social events at times during the year when families and friends spend time together.
What we do
Not Home Alone provides free events at times of the year where the feeling of isolation and loneliness are felt the most. As a volunteer led charity, we are wholly self-funded, relying on donations, fundraisers and bequests. We try and give people events to look forward to, where they can make friends and help them see a brighter alternative to the loneliness and isolation they are used to on a day to day basis.
Volunteer with us
We could not operate without the incredible gift of time from our volunteers. We welcome applications from anyone who has a genuine desire to give a little time to help make a difference, especially carer or healthcare professionals, and those willing to drive our guests to and from events. If you would like to volunteer and become part of our family, we would love to hear from you.
