Belle Isle Elderly Winter Aid was founded in 1986. Our aim is to assist older people to remain living in their own homes as long as possible.
We do this by providing activities and services to address the issues and problems which older people tell us are affecting their quality of life and their ability to manage to maintain independence and continue to live at home.
