| Purpose and classifications - Intervention - (Value) | The SIB provides one-to-one tailored support for lonely older people who co-develop an action plan to establish ways in which they can (re)connect with a variety of local support networks. The SIB facilitates this access to services to link individuals with their communities, with activities including: a befriending service to link volunteer ‘friends’ with beneficiaries, links into self-help groups (which contain people of similar age and who are experiencing similar issues), signposting to existing support activities taking place in the local community linked to economic, health, social care and emotional support services. A volunteer based locally works with each beneficiary to help them achieve the actions in their plan and help individuals maintain their connections with activities in the longer term. |
