The Exmouth Town Band
The Exmouth Town Band - if you haven't heard or seen them - do make the effort - an excellent band not
to be missed.
The town band very kindly chose Age Concern Exmouth as their Charity at their
annual concert held in the The Exmouth Pavilion - thereby helping us raise much needed funds.
Counselling and Support
For those looking for support or general advice on counselling. Click on
the link below.
The Councilling Directory is a support network that enables those in distress to find
a councilor
close to them or appropriate for their needs.
The service is free, confidential and hopefully will encourage those
who feel distressed to
seek help.
The website also contains a number of sections on emotional disorders (see
Types of Distress section)
It also provides some useful statistics.
Every councillor on the site who has submitted
their profile has either sent a copy of their qualifications and insurance cover to the The Counselling Directory or
is a registered with a professional body on-line with recognised codes of practice. This way the Councelling
Directory website isassured of each counsellors professionalism.
Age Concern Exmouth accepts no liability
with regard to the Cancelling Directory website.

The work of a typical Age Concern
Click on the link below to view a moving yet engaging video entitled "Once We Were Young"
In
a few moments the graphic content of this video will show you what your local Age Concern is all about. It provides an insight
to the how Age concern carries out it's work.
The original video was commissioned by Tesco (Every little helps!)
for Age Concern England (now defunct) when Age Concern was Tesco's Charity of the Year. Whilst the video itself is quite
old the content is still relevant today. It depicts what many older people face in their day to day lives.
