Age Concern Mid-North has the following services:

An Accredited Visiting Service allows trained volunteers to visit socially isolated older people. Co-ordinator Debbie would like to hear from you if you need a visitor, or if you would like to be a visitor.
The Accredited Visiting Service continues to provide a welcome service in the community, 51 volunteers visitors and 77 clients. Petrol costs are a serious concern to this service as volunteers struggle to afford to put up extra mileage. We are very grateful to our precious visitors. Their efforts DO make a difference.
A health promotion programme promotes healthy living in your own home, and social contact within the community. Social outings and bus trips provide the opportunity to 'mix and mingle'. The Co-ordinator will be glad to hear from you.
Annual membership will receive two monthly newsletters which keep you up to date with 'what's on'.
A 50% Taxi subsidy initiative. Funded by the Te Tai Tokerau PHO this service allows people over 65s without access to transport to receive a 50% subsidy on fares in the Mid North and Kaitaia.

Telephone us - we are here to help.
