Compassionate Neighbours Programme

The Compassionate Neighbours Programme is a community-based initiative that offers social and emotional support to people (Community member) who are living with or caring for someone with a life-limiting illness, those who are recently bereaved, and are feeling lonely or isolated.

Compassionate Neighbours creates strong, supportive relationships within local communities for people who may be feeling lonely or socially isolated due to a life-limiting illness or bereavement.

Support is personalised and flexible – including home visits, group meet-ups or attending community hubs. This companionship offers caring support that’s shaped around what matters most to the individual.
