Our beginnings

Since 2015, Aspire Creating Communities has been dedicated to offering a safe space for over 400 vulnerable individuals annually aged 55 and above, integrating them into a local, enjoyable, and compassionate community. For many, our groups represent their sole weekly source of social interaction. 

Age UK states, more than one million older people in England say they go over a month without speaking to a friend, neighbour or family member. This devastating reality significantly contributes to the declining well-being of the elderly in the UK.

At Aspire, our mission is precisely to address and change this situation.

Prioritising Your Wellbeing
 

As a charity rooted in Occupational Therapy, we place a special emphasis on activities that enhance everyday life: taking care of yourself, enjoying leisure activities, and being productive. When we successfully address these aspects, it creates a sense of balance in our daily lives, which can have a positive impact on our overall well-being.

 

In simpler terms, think of it this way: we help people improve their ability to do everyday things like moving around more easily, keeping their minds engaged, and embracing a more active and creative lifestyle.

Our specialised interest lies in fostering meaningful and impactful activities that have a positive influence on overall wellbeing.
