What is GOAL?
GOAL is a new project in partnership with Connect Hackney (Ageing Better) and funded by The Lottery Community Fund. It’s a bookable excursion service that takes you out for an activity – including transport there and back again. All activities are tailored to each individual, or to a group of individuals that want get to the same place, but don’t necessarily know one another.
Who is it for?
It’s aimed at anyone in Hackney over 50 who’s having difficulty getting out or making new friends. You can join us to get out and about, gain the confidence to make new relationships with the people around you and take part in something happening in your area.
How much does it cost?
Costs start at as little as £3 per activity for transport. If the activity has an entrance or ticket fee then this will be additional to the £3.
How does someone access the programme?
The first step is a chat to assess whether GOAL is right for you / the individual who you are referring. Please call 0207 275 2414 / 07725 955 964 to get started / email goal@hctgroup.org; then we will meet you at your home address to complete the relevant paperwork and ensure that we get you signed up to the right activities.
