provide social dining as a catalyst to addressing loneliness and social issolation with the elderly

Sycamore Dining provides social dining to the elderly in the City of Nottingham as a catalyst for addressing loneliness and social isolation. We provide social dining at a number of community rooms in Independent Living Communities for the elderly across Nottingham.

Why the community needs us

Improve the health and wellbeing of the elderly in Nottingham by providing regular social dining events at different locations across the City. We currently deliver cooked meals to 14 independent living communities in the City of Nottingham. We typically serve between 20 and 30 meals to each venue. We currently operate on Wednesdays and Fridays serving cooked meals to 3 venues each day we operate. We only charge a nominal fee of £3 per meal, to ensure our meals are affordable to all.

Our impact on the community

In our first 3 months of operating as a community interest company, we served over 1200 meals. The number of social dining meals continues to grow.
