The Filo Project offers high quality care for small groups of older people.
We support individuals across Devon and Somerset who are socially isolated, many experiencing symptoms associated with moderate dementia. Each day is provided by a host and takes place in the intimate setting of a host's own home. This warm and welcoming environment is key and no client is overwhelmed by a large group.
Apart from having a home-cooked lunch, what occurs in each group varies, and very much depends on who is in the group, and what their capacities, preferences and personalities are. It is a bespoke service. However, the focus of any day it to provide the opportunity for meaningful socialising.
A bi-product of our service is that carers can enjoy regular and extended respite. Transport is also provided.
