Armley Helplng HandsTrustees Report 2023-24 ArmLey Helping Hands (Charity No 1076692)) is a registered charity SUPPOrting older people in the ArmLey & Wortley District of Leeds, West Yorkshire. It was established in 1995, in response to the Community Care Act by a group of local people and community activists. They were concerned about the welfare of local older people, living in very deprived inner-city areas of Leeds. Community Care grants were available, via Leeds City Council and the initial steering groups successfulLy applied and this enabled them to employ their first worker Dawn Newsome in 1995. Our project has grown. in response to the needs and aspirations of local older people. We have carefully listened to our members (older people) and tried to respond appropriately, by providing a range of Seices, advice. support and varied social and healthy living activities, enabling older people to live independently and to pro-actively participate within their own communities At the same time, we have worked very hard, to raise the necessary resources- people, funding and volunteers to enabLe us to offer a professional and comprehensive support network. Key issues faced by people as they get older in Armley and Wortley are: increasing frailty, increase of individuals with memory loss, dementia and other health issues, victim of crime reduced income and, often, less resilience to the changes and challenges of these issues leading to Loneliness and isolation. Armley Helping Hands is committed in addressingthese issues by providing a quality and effective service to older people. The charities pride themselves on being able to consult with Service Users, Carers, Partnership 8gencies, professionals and the general public to evaluate existing services and identify the needs of the local community.
