Story

The McCarthy Stone Foundation supports the health and wellbeing of older people, helping grassroots charitable causes working on intergenerational activity and regenerating community spaces.

Our community grants programme has already helped over 75 charitable causes with funding ranging from £250 to £6300, including causes like Journey Enterprises in Hexham, who are engaging local older people in social housing through their Journey Friends Programme.

The Foundation has also supported charities like 'New Friends for You' in Lancashire, who are a volunteer led befriending charity providing community support to older people in isolation or experiencing loneliness.

Our work wouldn't be possible without the wider support of McCarthy Stone employees, suppliers, friends, and family. Thank you, with your help we can reach more grassroots causes who are making a real difference to the lives of older people in their community.

You can read more about our work in our 2021 Impact Report.

Thank you for your generous support, it really is appreciated.
