Thinking of joining Liverpool Cares? Read this short interview with younger neighbour Jordan. He signed up to be a part of Liverpool Cares back in 2019, and has been a part of all of our programmes at some point or other in the last few years. We caught up with him and asked him about his experience as a younger neighbour before a big move to London, where he hopes to become a part of the East London Cares crew!
It’s Mental Health Awareness Week from the 9th-15th May, and this year’s theme is ‘loneliness’. We recently asked four of our younger neighbours – Hanneke, Michael, Hannah, and Caterina – about their motivations to join Liverpool Cares, how they've felt building meaningful connections through our programmes, and how they've overcome their own feelings of loneliness.
In her latest blog, our Love Your Neighbour Coordinator Alice chats to Trish, we wanted to hear more about Trish’s time with her fellow neighbours at Liverpool Cares, and reflect on the impact getting involved with our programmes has had.

At Liverpool Cares, we’re continuing to support older neighbours with digital technology, helping to improve literacy, confidence and online skills. We’re utilising the digital expertise of our younger neighbour network, creating spaces where older neighbours feel relaxed, supported and connected - both in person and online - and can hang out with their younger neighbours and learn something new over a cup of tea.
In her last blog of 2021, Social Clubs coordinator Abbie looks back on a year of programmes in Liverpool Cares. 2021 might not be ending the way we’d hoped it would, but we’ve still managed to have fun, connect with new neighbours, and support our community - whilst keeping everyone safe.
