Happy Volunteers’ Week! This Volunteers' Week (1st to 7th June), we want to say a heartfelt thank you to every one of our incredible volunteers.

Whether you provide companionship, practical support, transport, or simply a friendly conversation, your kindness helps older people across our community stay connected, independent and valued. Every visit, phone call and act of support makes a real difference to someone’s day – and often, to their life.

CHEER simply couldn’t do what we do without the dedication, compassion and generosity of our volunteers. Thank you for the time, energy and care you give so freely.

If you’ve ever thought about volunteering and would like to make a meaningful difference in the lives of local older people, we’d love to hear from you. Whether you can spare a little time or a lot, there are a variety of ways to get involved and become part of our friendly team.

Or, should you wish to make a donation, you can do that here: cheer-elmbridge.org.uk/donate

Together, we can help ensure that no older person feels isolated or alone.

CHEER Pub Socials Bring Joy, Friendship and Connection

What a wonderful week for CHEER! Last week, over 80 CHEER clients and volunteers came together across two lovely pub socials at The Fairmile Pub & Restaurant in Cobham.

Everyone enjoyed a delicious lunch in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. With the added bonus of beautiful early spring sunshine, it was the perfect setting for smiles, laughter and great company.

Our pub socials are a fantastic way for clients and volunteers to get together, catch up, make new friendships and enjoy time in a relaxed and friendly environment. These special moments of connection are what CHEER is all about.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make both socials such a lovely success!
