West Horsley Wheel of Care

A Caring Community

The Wheel of Care is here to help any person residing in West Horsley who is in need of assistance. The Wheel’s local volunteers provide a vital service and will

• Collect prescriptions
• Do small DIY jobs
• Give lifts to shops, surgery, hospital
• Read or fill in forms
• Provide Support to Carers

although they are not able to provide an emergency service. In the past we have also taken people on longer journeys to keep in touch with friends and have even helped a young mum with triplets.

We also run three very popular Clubs all held at St Mary’s Wheelhouse in East Lane

• a weekly Scrabble Club (Tuesdays 2.30 - 4.15pm)
• a weekly Movement to Music class (Thursdays 2.30 - 3.30pm)
• and a monthly Film Club (second Monday at 2pm)

Help When You need It

Whether you are new to the area or have lived here all your life, young or old, in need of regular assistance or occasional friendship, the West Horsley Wheel of Care aims to provide the care that people of West Horsley need. This is an affluent village without many of the the problems of urban and deprived areas, nevertheless we all require a little help or companionship sometimes. Whether this is due to a temproary indisposition, a disability or advancing age is immaterial. The Wheel of Care offers help, support, transport and activities providing exercise, companionship and friendship.

Volunteering

Do you have a driving licence or a skill to offer? If you have a couple of hours spare each month and would be interested in volunteering we would love to hear from you! We are always looking for new volunteers and your help could make such a difference. If you would like to help or would like to know more about what is involved, please email Sue Magor, Membership Secretary at suemagor@hotmail.com or speak to the Duty officer on 01483 281703
