The Cares Family helps people find connection and community in a disconnected age

The Cares Family is a group of six charities that brings people together across different generations and backgrounds to build community and connection.


The Cares Family currently operates five local charities:
North London Cares, South London Cares, Manchester Cares, Liverpool Cares and East London Cares. Each local charity delivers four core programmes which bring older and younger people together: Social Clubs, Love Your Neighbour, Outreach and Community Fundraising.

Our national charity, The Cares Family, acts as an umbrella for our five local charities – providing senior leadership and operational support , as well as a Development team working to raise the funds we need to keep bringing people together.

Through The Multiplier and Ripple Effect programmes, we support people and organisations to build social connection in different places across the country. We also campaign for community and connection to sit at the heart of policymaking.
