Welcome to RISE+

Regenerate-RISE has started a new initiative called RISE+ which is supporting St George's Hospital and Queen Mary's Hospital with a "Home from Hospital" discharge plan.  We are currently visiting the Senior Health wards to get to know patients, provide activities and support on discharge.  We will provide a gift of a dressing gown, a food parcel on arrival home and an Activities kit along with daily visits to ensure the patient settles at home with everything they need to avoid readmission to hospital.  Referrals are from the wards and the form can be downloaded by clicking on the link below:

We have recruited our new RISE+ Outreach Co-ordinator, Bryce Schneider who has a background in project management and has worked throughout the world.  We are so glad to have increased our team and are looking forward to introducing him to all the staff and colleagues that we work alongside.

Welcome to the RISE+ team as an addition to Debbie, Toney and Jackie along with our volunteers, Robert, Ray and Mo

Kings and Queens

We held Kings and Queens in the marquee on the Green in Danebury Avenue on 26 August with approximately 200 people attending.  Our theme was "The Oscars" and we gave everyone an Oscar as an appreciation of their contribution to society.  We also honoured three local people for their dedication and commitment to the people of Roehampton and beyond.  They were Pam Harris for her work with the Over 60s Cafe, Alan Housden for his commitment to the community over the years and Rosie Taylor-Davies for her dedication to providing scrubs to many hospitals throughout Covid as well as enrolling about 100 volunteers from across Roehampton.  Our guests were entertained by Grandpa's Spells, Robbie and Atlantis and along with a raffle and a game of Bingo, they enjoyed a delicious lunch.  A good time was had by all and we look forward to hopefully repeating Kings and Queens in 2024.

The Platt Mission

On 9 November 1807, seven friends met to consult as to building a place of worship in Felsham Road and they raised amongst themselves the sum of £57 and formed an association to obtain further help.  The result was that on 9 August 1808 the building known as the Platt Chapel was opened.  The services were well attended and £100 was raised during the day towards the total cost of £900.  By 1827, the Platt Chapel was so popular that even the addition of a gallery was insufficient and often the vestry as well as the Chapel was crowded on a Sunday evening.  The Chapel was again enlarged in the year 1830.  From 1872 the Platt Chapel was closed for awhile and a site was procured in Oxford Road at a cost of £750 where an iron chapel was erected to accommodate 500 people.  However by 1897 the Platt Chapel was open again and was transferred by a Trust Deed to the City Mission and it remained with them for a long time.  more...

RISE in SW London

From 1 April 2023 RISE SW11 and RISE SW15 merged together as one project to reach older people across the borough of Wandsworth with a programme of day services and outreach. We began a new 5 year contract with Wandsworth Council to provide an "enhanced" Age Well service with a particular emphasis on providing support for people affected by Dementia and memory loss.



We are very pleased to have provided a new Pool Table which converts to table tennis and air hockey and are hoping to purchase a new Magic Table in the near future. Activities include strength and balance exercises, darts, art, music and we have a great group of members knitting squares for blankets.

Mary's 100th Birthday Party
We celebrated 100 years of Mary's life in the presence of the Mayor of Wandsworth, Cllr Jeremy Ambache and a great time was enjoyed by all who attended. The decor was in the theme of poppies as for over 40 years Mary was seen at Putney Station raising funds and selling poppies. Three cakes spelt out 100 and Songs on Wheels entertained brilliantly.

Mary received a card from the King and Queen as well as birthday wishes from the Pope. It was an amazing day and everyone really enjoyed the celebrations.

Lunches


We have now delivered 4,235 Lunches across Wandsworth, ready to be microwaved. We were very grateful to the London Community Response Fund for being able to subsidise our lunches and we now provide these 4 days a week and the cost is £6 for a lunch, dessert and a drink.  They are delivered  by volunteers and our staff and will arrive in time for lunch.  They are cooked freshly on the day and we change our Menu every month.  Please see the August Menu and let us know if you want to try it out.

Delivering Supply Bags


Since March we have delivered 3,206 Supply Bags to people who are in lock down and to those recently who are unable to go out due to their disability or vulnerability.  We have been grateful to all those who have contributed items and it has been amazing to see the response by those we deliver to.


 

 

We aim to continue delivering Supply Bags for as long as is necessary.  We travel across the borough of Wandsworth to every post code and if you know of anyone who is in need of support, please do contact us and we will do our best to deliver a Supply Bag within 24 hours.  We currently have 377 people that we have provided a service to and as people begin to do their own shopping, the number will reduce

*edit title*Raising funds to buy the Platt Centre
*edit text*

The Challenge of A New Era




We have now purchased the Platt Centre and are renaming it "The Platt Mission". We are grateful to all those who fundraised to enable this to become a reality. We are now in Stage 4 of the Reablement Centre and plan to work hard over the next year to raise the funds to build our floors above the Centre for older people on discharge from hospital.

The Platt Mission will be a place of excellence for the care of the elderly and whatever the future holds, we will combine outreach, activities, day reablement and intermediate care for older people coming out of hospital. If you would like to support us, please email or go to our JustGiving page.
