Our Programs
Friends on the River is our project to help combat loneliness and bring people together.
In addition to meetings, food, conversation and trips on the River we have connections with people who are keen to share their skills and provide activities and fun for all of us....
Activities
One of the main ways to avoid loneliness is having a full calendar of activities with like minded people. At Friends on the River we have support from many people who offer interesting activities such as painting classes, talks, walks and visits.
Boating
Friends on the River was created around our beautiful canal boat, The Lady Jennifer. She is a haven of friendship, conversation and food providing wonderful journeys along the Rivers and Canals to we enjoy the natural world in style.
Companionship
The benefits of Communication and Companionship cannot be overstated. Our aim is that by sharing a lunch or activity can lead to interactions with new friends of a like mind to ultimately remove loneliness from people's lives completely.
