The Furzedown Project:- Social Hub for the Over 50's

The Furzedown Project is an activity centre and social hub for people aged 50 and over from Furzedown, in the London Borough of Wandsworth.

Our mission is to increase people's sense of wellbeing and reduce social isolation.

We provide a lively programme of over 40 social, educational, recreational and health-promoting activities at our centre between Monday-Saturday. Many of these activity sessions are supported by our assisted transport service to enable some of our members with reduced mobility to attend.

We also offer a Befriending service that offers socialising through our outreach programme to people who find it very difficult to get out of their own homes

DRIVERS for our adapted MINIBUS; 2. ESCORTS to support passengers with impaired mobility; 3. RECEPTIONISTS to meet and greet our members and visitors; 4. HOME VISITORS to offer conversation & befriending visits to older people who rarely get out. 5. Administrators- Work in our office/remoteley to complete admin tasks that ensure the smooth running of the organisation. 6. Fundraisers- Help us bring in much needed income to maintain/develop our services
