For 35 years Care Local has been working amongst the older community living alone in Dublin.  

Loneliness and isolation for an older person living alone is a social problem that initiates depression, reduces appetite, contributes to many mental  health issues and greatly affects the overall well-being of the older person.  

Throughout our history Care Local has been addressing these issues by matching volunteers to older people throughout Dublin.  

We are looking for your support to enable us to continue to provide valuable services to over 200 elderly people each and every week.

• Each week we give 200 reasons to smile;
• 200 doors opening to the world;
• 200 ways to show someone cares;
• 200 of your neighbours visited.

To enable Care Local to provide these services, please join us in one of our fundraising activities.
