Get more out of life. Explore new experiences. Get out and about. Make new friends. Learn new skills.
Community mentoring is a free service for people aged 50 or over who is living in Devon and who feel they have had some kind of a down turn in their lives, perhaps because of bereavement, disability or illness either themselves or sometimes because of caring responsibilities for someone in their family. Our aim is to help you choose, find and enjoy activities and social opportunities to re-build confidence and enjoyment of life. We tackle isolation, loss of confidence and downturns in life with a healthy living approach, tailoring solutions and opportunities to an individual's needs and wishes.
Time for Life also offers community development services, providing groups and activities throughout Devon.
