This is achieved through the provision of educational resources, access to activities including recreational activities and to social
services. The benefit which flows from this purpose includes improvement in conditions for the life of the older people, 50+, to improve their health and well-being and lead to a reduction in the chances of social isolation happening. The purpose which flows from this is to increase skill, enjoyment and social interaction, improvement in mental and physical health. This is demonstrated through having access to resources, equipment, courses, information and transport which would not otherwise be available and through providing opportunities to meet and interact. The purpose will not lead to harm. The benefit is for all of the older people, 50+ within Crumlin and its surrounding area and is incidental and necessary to ensure the benefit is provided to all beneficiaries.
