The Tea & Chat home visiting service consists of a home visit to an older individual or couple living in Histon or Impington by Helen from the HI Friends team. Visits provide companionship & social connection.
This activity is good for wellbeing because
- meeting people can make us feel less alone;
- a home visit offers a chance to talk in the comfort of your own home;
- if you have something specific you need help with, you'll be signposted to other services.

More information
Clients need to be able to independently use the bathroom themselves. As this is a home visit and chat service, Helen and the team are unable to undertake any extra tasks.
