North Tyneside Council awarded a contract to North Tyneside VODA for the provision of the Good Neighbour Scheme, which supports older and vulnerable people who are isolated and lonely.

Between April and December 2017, the Scheme carried out 865 support interventions for 259 beneficiaries, with 76% receiving on-going or multiple support interventions.

A high proportion of activity provided by volunteers promotes informal social contact, and requests for help with minor practical tasks are sometimes used as a pretext for the resulting social contact.

94% of beneficiaries are aged 65 and over, 82% live alone, and 98% have a disability or long-term condition.

In beneficiary questionnaires, 80% of respondents rated the project as having changed their lives.

The contract value is AUD 37,900.
