It is with great sadness that we publicly announce the passing of our beautiful Angela, who slipped away peacefully on 12th August 2025.

Angela worked with us for over 20 years and was a much-loved friend and colleague to all of us. Angela was kind and thoughtful and great to spend time with, she always had time for other people and everyone enjoyed chatting with her and listening to her interesting and very funny stories.

Some people might not know that Angela loved crystals (and cats) but it was impossible not to be aware of her love of Dave Grohl, as her desk was adorned with photos, mugs and calendars of her favourite rock star. We will always remember Angie fondly when we hear a Foo Fighters track.

As so many of you will know, Angela was integral to our work, her warm and friendly personality created a sunny welcome to our centre and her efficiency made her an amazing administrator. We will be forever thankful for her contribution to Action Point and for her contribution to our community – she will always be part of us.

This Friday (12th September) we will say our goodbyes at Angela’s funeral which is being held at Oakworth Crematorium at 2:30 pm.

Dedicated to the memory of Angela Smith

Re-Engage are looking for volunteers who can become Call Companions.

As a call companion you’ll make regular telephone calls to an older person experiencing loneliness and isolation. These friendly chats provide a lifeline of friendship for older people and a vital link with the outside world from which they’ve become isolated.

The role includes:

Calling the older person you’ve been matched with for approximately 30 minutes either weekly or fortnightly at an agreed time.

Following the guidance in the online volunteer training so that your call companion calls are enjoyable, appropriate and in line with our charitable aims.

Keeping in regular contact with Re-engage and reporting any concerns to the team.

Keeping your knowledge and training up to date by reading our monthly volunteer newsletter – Re-engage Matters.
