Living and Ageing Well in Surrey Awards 2014
A Showcase of the Winners, Highly Commended and Runners Up
2
We were delighted to launch the first ever Living and Ageing Well in Surrey Awards in June, culminating in an awards ceremony in November at Dorking Halls. The awards recognised and celebrated the huge impact that support from non statutory services provide to help older people stay independent, included, safe and happy in their local community. More and more people in Surrey are living longer and we want to embrace this and recognise the many ways older people contribute to society and their local communities, and to build on the opportunities for improving the wellbeing of people in Surrey as they age. There were six award categories, each supporting the Pledges from Surrey’s Commitment to Ageing Well. They are specific pledges, identified by older people in Surrey as important factors in helping people to age well. They also offer a set of guiding principles and values which we would like to see individuals and organisations across the county working towards. The categories: Best Local Transport Project Technology, Making a Difference Bringing the Community Together Best Healthy Living project Help at home People's Choice In total 62 nominations were submitted, which was fantastic for the ‘launch’ year. The nominations were made by charities, people who receive services and support, residents of Surrey, and councillors and professionals in health and social care. The nominations revealed a broad wealth of support in local communities and thriving networks of activities and events for people of all ages to take part in. They recognised individuals, professional staff, volunteers, services, charities, local authorities as well as private groups – a fantastic range! It is also worth noting that the submissions were all of a very high standard. So much so that the judges decided to introduce Highly Commended where it was almost impossible to decide on a winner; there was even a Joint Winner for the Best Healthy Living Award. The event was opened by David McNulty, Chief Executive of Surrey County Council and nominations were introduced by Sue Zirps, CEO of Age UK Surrey, with Councillor Mel Few announcing Winners and handing over trophies, certificates and a prize for the People’s Choice Award. Winners and Runners Up were all presented with a trophy and certificate by Councillor Mel Few. Indeed, everyone who took part received a certificate, because it was important to acknowledge and thank everyone who took the time and made the effort to submit an entry, regardless of whether or not they were shortlisted, a runner up or winner.

We will now take you through the Winners and Highly Commended, by category. We hope you enjoy reading about these inspirational people and projects as much as we did.
Best Local Transport Project For this category the judges were looking at how being connected to the outside world and the people around us has been recognised as being a crucial element of wellbeing. They were looking for transport projects, people or initiatives and how they helped older people to stay connected to what is important to them – shops, friends, family, activities, on their own terms.
The Village Centre, Englefield Green Winner
Nominated by Sylvia Carter The nomination is for the ‘Free Lifts to Egham Post Office’ service run by the Village Centre in Englefield Green. It is has been running for at least two years. It provides a vital lifeline for people who are isolated in the village and who cannot afford or have

difficulty accessing the commercial bus service, as well as building camaraderie and regular social contact, the service also provides a friendly drop-in cafe which welcomes the whole community including older people. “I am nominating the Village Centre for the award because not only did it develop this service on its own initiative and without council funding, but it also provides a wonderful friendly cafe drop-in which welcomes the whole community including older people.” Sylvia Carter Contact information: Address: The Village Centre Victoria Street Englefield Green Egham Surrey TW20 0QY Phone: 01784 471110 Email:[email protected]
Reigate and Redhill Live at Home Scheme Runner Up
Nominated by Tanya Stafford This scheme has been providing transport to older people for over 15 years. It means people can attend social events and make new friends, preventing feelings of isolation that many older people experience. The scheme is run by an ever-increasing band of volunteers. Aside from driving, volunteers also provide much more help such as an arm to lean on, a friendly ear to listen and the chance to chat and laugh amongst friends. Most of our members would not manage to get out without their helpful assistance.
“We really appreciate the time and effort all drivers give on our behalf. Our network of volunteer drivers, together with our links with Buses4U and the Regents Hall bus, ensure that many people are able to attend a wide ange of events where they feel welcomed and included. We know that this makes a huge difference to the older people in our community.” Tanya Stafford

Age Concern, Epsom and Ewell Transport Team Runner Up
Nominated by Olivia Edwards ACEE is the local charitable organisation within Age UK and aims to improve the lives and wellbeing of older people in the borough of Epsom and Ewell. The volunteer driver scheme was set up 15 years ago by Eileen Watson with no volunteer drivers. Today there are 39 drivers and 400 clients. Journeys take clients to doctors, therapists, and hospitals in and out of the borough, dentists and other areas. The transport service means that older people can live independently, knowing they have transport they can trust. It's not just about the drives, it’s about company; a chat in an otherwise empty day.
“I have never seen such commitment to do a job. Some of our drivers work every day, driving long distances to ensure people get to their appointment. The transport desk team often work under a lot of pressure with constant phone calls and bookings. Our drivers rarely say no to a job and I know first hand how grateful our clients are. I am so proud of what the team do.” Olivia Edwards Contact information: Address: Age Concern, Epsom and Ewell Transport Team Old Town Hall The Parade Epsom

Technology, Making a Difference This award could be for helping people to access technology which in turn helps reduce social isolation. For example, helping somebody learn how to get online or use technology like Skype meaning they can be connected to a wider group of people. The judges were looking for innovative solutions for reducing social isolation and loneliness, increasing independence, helping people to feel better connected and also creating better access and acquiring new skills using technology - regardless of age, gender or ethnicity.
Waverley Borough Council’s Dementia Project
Winner

Nominated By Daniel Brett Waverley has the highest predicted number of residents aged over 65 with dementia and this figure is set to rise by 46% by 2025. The project aimed to create an easy yet personal way for families, especially children, to connect with relatives with dementia in a care setting using MP3 players to facilitate Music Evoked Autobiographical Memories (MEAM). It is the first project of its kind in the UK. It has inspired the creation of a new charity called Playlist for Life, using MEAM, and the next steps will be working in partnership with the Alzheimer’s Society. “From March to July this year, year 6 students visited local care homes and day centres to ‘interview’ older adults about their musical memories. The students then returned to ‘playback’ the playlists and share the musical experience together. This was underpinned in class by reading the Dementia Diaries book.” Contact information: Address: Waverley Borough Council The Burys Godalming Surrey GU7 1HR Phone: 01483 523333 Email: [email protected]

Bringing the Community Together
This award applies across all the pledges as it is about involving everyone, and improving access to tools and services that help people to live a wider life more easily. We all know somebody who is brilliant at involving other people – so for this award judges are looking for an individual, organisation or project that has helped unify a community, no matter how small, or helped previously fragmented groups to live, work, socialise and participate in a more inclusive way.
Lynn Baxter and the Mole Valley Ponderers
Winner
Nominated by Dr. Kirstie Chandler Lynn founded this group for people with dementia who previously attended the Surrey and Borders Partnership Trust’s Cognitive Stimulation Group so they would
10
have ongoing social support, company, and meaningful engagement with others on a weekly basis. Lynn has been able to initiate this group with virtually no support or resources, other than her endless enthusiasm, and energy for improving the quality of life for all older people. Lynn genuinely values all of the people that she works with and she understands that each person who receives her support has an individual need to be respected, appreciated and understood, and also to have the opportunity to be part of a local community and be able to make a valued contribution to others- regardless of their age or disability. “It is a pleasure and a privilege to work alongside Lynn and I am very proud of the difference that she makes to the people who access our mental health services.” Dr. Kirstie Chandler

13
lived in another Anchor scheme which had a very lively social life - galvanised a few of us to form a committee and start things moving. Since then, we have gone from strength to strength. “This organisation has made a substantial difference to the lives of the older people who live in these retirement flats, and has definitely played a part in bringing the community together.” Irene Armstrong Contact information: Email: [email protected]
