The Door to Store service, sustained by a partnership between Vistry Group and Community Transport Waltham Forest, aids residents in Walthamstow and surrounding areas. It provides accessible transportation to supermarkets, helping those who struggle with mobility or transportation, while fostering social engagement. The service, available from Tuesday to Thursday for a minimal fee, allows carers to accompany clients at no cost and includes volunteer assistance in shopping. Leaders express gratitude, emphasizing the positive impact on community independence and social connection for older residents.
The Door to Store initiative makes a real difference to people's lives not just by helping them get to the shops, but by creating opportunities for connection, independence, and community.
Thanks to this partnership with Vistry Group and the hard work of Waltham Forest Council's Social Value Team, the Door to Store initiative will continue to help local people live independently.
