At MHA Communities Burntwood, we want to enable older people to maintain their independence and live later life well.
Our community group provides a whole range of support and services for older people that are available to older people, including a wide range of social activities and events, supported outings, befriending services for older people, interest groups, signposting and other services that enable older people to remain actively involved in their local community.

-
Befriending (1:1 and telephone)
- Shopping assistance
- Outings / day trips
- Library service
- Friendship groups
- Lunch clubs

The types of service and support we offer puts members in control of their own support plan and members can choose the types of activities or services they would like, providing them with flexibility and variety.
We do this by offering different types of service that suit different wants and needs that members can access, picking and choosing from the whole range.
Contact us today to see how we could be of service to you or a loved one living at home.
Information for businesses and corporates
MHA is able to subsidise many of its charitable services thanks to the generous contributions of businesses who want to make a difference in their local communities. How to get involved
Information for families and friends
If you’re looking at MHA Communities to help someone you know, we understand. With a busy work life, family and other responsibilities, sometimes it just isn’t possible to travel regularly and give a loved one the dedicated care and support you wish you could provide. Refer a family member or friend
Information for healthcare professionals
If an older person in hospital has no family, friends or neighbours, we can assist them to return home. We work with GP practices, hospital discharge and re-enablement teams and Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) to support older people adjust and settle back at home after a period in hospital.

Information for local authorities
Through our preventative, person-centred services, we can reduce the strain on local health services – delaying, minimising or even preventing people’s need for them. More information
