Big Help: Older Peoples Project

The 'Big Help' project is set up to work with older and / or disabled people living in the Derby area. The aim is to prevent social exclusion for older and / or disabled people by encouraging them to come out and participate in group activities, give them an opportunity to meet new people in their community and also make them more independent.
