Our Vision

We aim to bring different generations together through intergenerational volunteering. Our Organisation targets school children aged 15 - 18 who want to help volunteer their time within care homes in their local community.

There are nine million lonely people in the UK, and four million of them are older adults. Many older people find constant loneliness hardest to overcome. They lack the friendship and support we all need.

At Brunch & Brew, we're here to change that. Volunteer your time fortnightly/monthly as we host afternoon tea on every other Sunday in care homes in areas of deprivation in Belfast.

1,000,000
