Our VIP programme – standing for Very Important People – seeks and engages with those people – whatever age – who may have become socially isolated and lonely for a wide variety of reasons. We bring people into this programme, organising events and activities aimed and encouraging people to engage with each other and the wider community.
Some of the current participants have benefited from free classes such as zumba, yoga, free cycling, walking, and access to social groups such as our Men’s Empowerment Group, and services such as NHS Health Trainers and NHS Health Checks and volunteering opportunities.
Youth Programme projects promote confidence, positive relationships, personal development, fun experiences, career support, education, skills training opportunities, conflict resolution, sports and artistic development, among others.

Our community dementia service is available for people who live in their own home or in a care home within Trinity's catchment area.
The service aims to ensure people living with dementia, and their families and friends, have the same access to specialist palliative and end of life care as those living with other progressive, life-limiting illnesses such as cancer.
