Our Autumn Events
Could you volunteer?
Are you over 50? Do you enjoy getting out and meeting new people? The PIRAMID Project has been set up to offer support to older people who don't have the social contacts they once had and are coming to terms with a bereavement, an experience of crime or recent life changes. The PIRAMID Volunteer officer will be at these libraries so you can find out more.
