A CHARITY is looking for people to host occasional tea parties for small groups of elderly folk.
Contact the Elderly helps alleviate the isolation often felt by older people who live alone by taking them to tea at a host's home one Sunday a month.
But the charity urgently needs volunteers in the Bury area to help keep the scheme going.
The co-ordinator for Bury, Joan Haworth, said: "All that is required is a few sandwiches and cups of tea." Contact Jenny Broadhurst on 01942 217577 or email jennyb@contact-the-elderly.org
