Compassionate Neighbours

@Compneighbours build caring communities for people experiencing chronic or terminal illness. Our neighbours are local people across London and the suburbs building a social movement, we want to take worldwide.

Always interesting & thought provoking attending @PAHospice #compassionateneighbour training. Thanks to all the attendees for being so engaged & giving up their time to volunteer @Compneighbours @PAHvolunteering

Another way #hospices are supporting #MentalHealth is through the @Compneighbours programme. Started by @StJoHospice, it has trained hundreds of volunteers and tackled loneliness and isolation: hospiceuk.org/what-we-offer/… #WorldMentalHealthDay #HospiceCareWeek #WhatItTakes

@Compneighbours THIS is what a compassionate community looks like @NLondonHospice recognising links between loneliness and health is working towards this twitter.com/Victoria1867/s…

Supporting people to contribute and do the things they enjoy. See what providers can achieve @al2getherbetter @Compneighbours @gigbuddies @grapevinecandw @LACNetworkUK @C_Circles @GetYrselfActive @TribeProjectOrg ow.ly/4VXx50vcVEx

"@Compneighbours is an expression of spirituality in the community. Spirituality is often linked with a search for meaning; it can involve actions but the focus is on the things you can’t see, experiences of love, health & peace." Maria, former volunteer bit.ly/2ZEMGEP
