Welcome to Bedford Guild House
Looking After Older People in Bedfordshire
Fundraising
Just Giving
Unfortunately the loss of statutory funding in 2016 and the effect of Coronavirus has meant that fund raising and grants have been reduced but costs have remained the same.
Having re-opened for activities and classes in May, attendances are increasing as confidence returns to our older people. Unfortunately this is not quick enough to avoid closure and we are looking for financial help to avoid having to make the decision to close the charity.
REIKI SHARE – FRIDAY 28TH JANUARY – 6PM ONWARDS
Reiki is based on the idea that we all have an unseen “life force energy” flowing through our bodies.
Join us to give and receive Reiki in a casual atmosphere of friendship, honour & positive energy, the cafe will be open for teas, coffees and cake!
Just come along – You do not need to stay for the 4 hours – the event will run on a pop in, pop out basis

About Us
volunteering
There are many reasons to volunteer. Here are just a few:
- Volunteering is very rewarding, you will have the satisfaction of being part of a group working together to achieve goals in supporting older people in the community.
- Volunteering helps to prepare for paid employment. It builds confidence, you will meet new people, learn new skills, get a reference and have experience to add to your CV.
- Volunteering is an excellent way to support the causes that matter to you.
There are lots of things to choose from:
administration, sales, organisation, charity shop work & plenty of other opportunities.
