#Prevention and Communities Grants Programme
CCC-B promotes the physical, social and economic wellbeing of the Chinese community in Birmingham & West Midlands through delivering services and activities directly and through partnerships. Winter’s Spring develops volunteers to support isolated older Chinese citizens, meeting language & cultural needs.
Volunteers will man a befriending telephone service; conduct home visits; plan and deliver a Wednesday social club, encourage citizens to attend the club and other activities, support them to join in. They will also organise and run peer support sessions which will enhance continuing skills development.
Target group is Chinese people aged 50+, although activities are open to all 50+
We are located on Bradford St Digbeth with an outreach hub on Thorp St Chinatown. We serve the Chinese community citywide.
Weekly social club is held on Thursdays
