Community Involvement
It's important to stay sociable as we age to avoid the serious impact of loneliness. Stay connected and have fun by joining a social group!
What's on where?
Our communities provide a variety of stimulating activities for older adults to enjoy, but it can be challenging to find all of the information in one place. This inspired Home Instead to create a guide to ‘What’s on Where’ (WOW) – the Community Services & Wellbeing Guide.
We are also highly aware of our societal responsibilities. We seek to address loneliness and social isolation, among other issues that older people, their families, and caretakers confront.
A dementia diagnosis changes the lives of everyone involved, but we know that it is possible to live well with the condition. Participating in events and being a part of the local community may have an impact, and we want to do our bit to make people affected feel appreciated, involved, and supported.

Our Community Cafes
Our community group provides a safe environment for older people to meet, enjoy some entertainment and each other’s company. Our sessions offer a range of activities for people to get involved with, including live music, games and special themed sessions. Run by Home Instead Eastbourne & Hailsham in partnership with the Wealden Dementia Action Alliance, those who attend the cafes are encouraged to take an active role.
