The Centre operates Outreach Advice services for older Irish people in North London, with dedicated case-workers for Kilburn,Camden and Islington.

This service is for Irish people over the age of 55 with mobility problems who are unable to come to the Centre. If you or anyone you know if needs help and cannot make it to our services please contact us.

When you contact us we will make an appointment to come out and complete an assessment: we will undertake a benefits check to ensure you are receiving all your entitlements, and we will discuss your housing, health and social inclusion needs.

Once we have worked with you to ensure you are have adequate income and housing and you have access to health service, typically we will also work to ensure you have appropriate social opportunities (such as lunch clubs, tea dances and befrienders).
