Time Limited Contact Scheme

Wigan & Leigh Pensioners Link offers a “Time Limited Contact Scheme”, which provides low-level support for a maximum of six visits for people aged 50 and over, who are experiencing changing times.

We help by providing:
 

• Information

• Home visits

• Low level advocacy

• Regular shopping

• Help to become more involved in social and community activities

The scheme provides support for people aged 50 and over who are experiencing a time of significant change, for example:
 

• Coming out of hospital

• Experiencing practical difficulties resulting from the loss of a family member of friend

• Coping with a new illness or disability

• Moving into a new area

By providing low level support, the scheme aims to help by reducing isolation, encouraging independence, helping older people to remain active and preventing a situation worsening and turning into a crisis.
