Local Connector
Find local activities, support and ways to connect
Local Connector is a free tool for people aged 45 and over. It helps you find local services, activities, events and community groups that suit you, so you can keep doing the things you enjoy and stay connected to community life.
Staying connected matters as we get older. Local Connector makes it easier by bringing trusted, up-to-date local information together in one place, helping you discover what is available nearby without having to search across multiple websites or services.
What you can find
Local Connector can help you discover:
- Exercise groups and social activities
- Local events such as markets, live music and trivia
- Classes, arts and crafts, gardening and music groups
- Everyday support including food, laundry services and emergency relief
- Volunteering opportunities and other ways to get involved in your community
How it works
Tell Local Connector what you are interested in, what you would like to do or the type of practical support you are looking for.
You can ask questions in everyday language and Local Connector will suggest relevant local options. From there, you can explore the results, learn more and connect directly with the group, service or organisation.
