Community Connectors are looking for community-minded people to join them. 

They are a Sefton CVS  team who are working hard to tackle social isolation and loneliness and help to connect people 18+ to groups and activities available to them in their local area.

The Community Connectors work with clients by having a person-centred conversation around their interests and best hopes to find suitable groups and activities that they may like to try to encourage them to meet new people and get out and about and try new things. 

Louise Heritage, North Sefton Community Connector said:

“Often clients lack confidence and feel apprehensive about attending a group alone for the first time, so where available Community Connectors can offer a buddy volunteer to meet them at the group for the first time to remove the worry of being new and feeling nervous. We are delighted to offer that support as we know it has a massive impact.”

Due to the high demand in supporting new clients, Community Connectors are looking to recruit more buddy volunteers to join their team of Community Champions. This would involve meeting a client at a group to accompany them for the first time, offer moral support and encouragement and a friendly face to help put them at ease. Community Champion volunteers would need to be friendly, empathetic, reliable and 18+.

Joe Westall, South and Central Sefton Community Connector said: 

“ We are immensely proud of our fantastic team of Champions and the difference they make to members of the local community. Post pandemic we have seen more people feeling isolated and we want to get them back in the community. You can help.”

 Champions are offered training, support from the Connectors and the chance to attend monthly meetings giving the opportunity for volunteers to meet each other and offer peer encouragement. If you would like further information about this, please get in touch with the Community Connectors by contacting Louise by email louise.heritage@seftoncvs.org.uk 

Sefton residents over 18 in the relevant areas can self-refer into the Community Connectors project by visiting  www.seftoncvs.org.uk/project/communityconnectors and filling out an online form or by calling 03003230181.

    of course like your web-site but you need to test the spelling on several of your posts. Several of them are rife with spelling problems and I to find it very bothersome to tell the reality on the other hand I’ll definitely come again again.

  5. My spouse and I stumbled over here by a different page and thought I might check things out. I like what I see so now i’m following you. Look forward to looking into your web page for a second time.

  6. Hello there! Quick question that’s entirely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My website looks weird when viewing from my iphone4. I’m trying to find a template or plugin that might be able to resolve this issue. If you have any recommendations, please share. Appreciate it!

    Nice read, I just passed this onto a colleague who was doing some research on that. And he just bought me lunch as I found it for him smile So let me rephrase that: Thanks for lunch! “Without friends no one would choose to live, though he had all other goods.” by Aristotle.

    The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.
