AS Bolton prepares for predicted gales, The Royal Voluntary Service wants as many people as possible to make sure older friends, family and neighbours are safe and well.
David McCullough, chief executive of Royal Voluntary Service, said: “Things like making sure older people have enough food in the house and offering a lift to a doctor’s appointment or to the shops can make a huge difference.” To find out more about how you can help older people in your area or to request help, visit royalvoluntary service.org.uk or call 0845 600 5885.
