Avon Valley Community Matters

We offer Bereavement Support as well as a local Friendship Group

Friendship Group

Our popular Friendship Group meets at 10am on the first and third Tuesdays of the month at The Ship Inn on Fordingbridge High Street.

This friendly group welcomes those who are lonely, isolated, bereaved or would just like a lovely cup of coffee and a chat.

Joining us is a great opportunity to develop new interests, make new friends and become part of a supportive community.

We also organise outings, theatre trips and garden visits. Please keep an eye on Partners for meeting updates, or call 01425 653258 for more information and to arrange travel - we are so happy to help and would love you to join us!

Coop Cheque for AVCM’s Friendship Group

Our Friendship Group is the happy recipient of £4,022.19 thanks to donations to the Local Community Fund scheme from customers of the Fordingbridge Branch of Coop. Charity Trustee Sue Ledger collected the giant cheque at a recent celebration event held at the Fordingbridge Store.

Thank you so much to all those who donated and to the Coop team for supporting our charity. The funds will be put to very good use providing support for our bi-monthly sessions held at The Ship, group outings and a Christmas meal.
