Age UK South Glos and Comfort Companions are inviting you to help tackle loneliness and fund a digital companion for an older person waiting for befriending support.

Citizens Advice South Gloucestershire has launched its Christmas Appeal for donations, which this year focuses on its work tackling homelessness.
The charity helped around 100 people per year with homelessness prior to the Covid-19 pandemic - but the total stood at 203 in 2024 with a similar number likely by the end of this year.
Step into the festive spirit this December with Chipping Sodbury's Moda House and take time out with friends and families.
There's still plenty to do and enjoy in town before Christmas arrives, from Guitar Trios to the Crib Fest and Christmas Sunday with entertainment galore, festive classics and timeless carols, surrounding us in an atmosphere of beauty, celebration and sheer delight!
