After talking to many people in Torbay, we have found that a lot of older people wish to remain independent and stay in their homes for as long as possible.
Many feel their talents, skills and knowledge are going unrecognised and undervalued and Staying Put aims to acknowledge and appreciate one of Torbay’s biggest unrecognised resources by enabling over 50-year-olds to retain their independence by assisting one another with tasks many take for granted.
Staying Put will be working alongside a group of organisations, each working to deliver particular assistance and volunteering opportunities.
