Supporting People with Learning Disability - Social Opportunities and Natural Networks

Tender description

Contract provision for tackling social isolation for residents in West Lothian. Gig Buddies aims to tackle social isolation by empowering people to take control of their social life, expand their social circles, and give people more confidence in accessing the events that their local community has to offer through pairing their members to volunteers who share the same interests to become ‘Gig Buddies’. This is their own, personal, one on one relationship, tailored to their interests. Through this pairing, they can go to whatever events interest them, at times which suit them.
