support for older people
Devon Communities Together is here to support people in later life throughout Devon.
Living in Devon can be wonderful but it does come with its challenges. We've got a number of projects and services that can support older people:
devon oil collective
Does your home run on expensive heating oil? Devon Oil Collective can save you money and hassle by providing a central point of contact and cheaper oil prices.
Big Energy Saving Network
We're running community presentations this winter to support people to reduce their energy bills. Confused about how to switch suppliers? Not sure how to claim the winter fuel payment? We can help.
Devon Community Housing Hub
We're supporting communities in Devon on their journeys to creating community-led housing to help local people stay in the communities they love - in high quality, affordable housing. A new website is coming soon but in the meantime, you can contact caroline.shephard@devoncommunities.org.uk for more information.
devon highlights
Our Devon Highlights project finished in June 2021 but we're please that we were able to support hundreds of older people make friends and maintain social contact during lockdown. You can read more about this project here and watch a video featuring some of our participants.
