Dartmouth Caring

Dartmouth Caring is a small charitable organisation who care for the residents in Dartmouth. What this means is, a few kind individuals living in or around the town give up their spare time to carry out a multitude of tasks to help others in the town.

Just a few of the tasks Dartmouth Caring carry out are:

Befriending
Due to various circumstances there are many older people living in Dartmouth who live alone. Dartmouth Caring will literally pop round to them and keep them company, just so that they know they are not alone and always have somebody to speak to.

Shopping
For those in the area that cannot for whatever reason get out of their homes to go shopping, or find it difficult to go to the shops, Dartmouth Caring will do their shopping for them, or, alternatively, take them shopping.

Gardening
They will help people keep on top of their gardens for those who find it difficult to do so themselves, making sure that the individual can enjoy their gardens.

Hospital Travel
They will pick up patients in need and take them to the local hospitals. In extreme cases they will take patients to various other places.

Luncheon Club
They provide a luncheon club every week where people can get together, have a chat and a meal. Bare in mind that these occasions are sometimes the only social contact some people have, so it's a very important aspect.
