Moor Socials take place twice a month in Ashburton, Buckfastleigh and Bovey Tracey. Events are coordinated by Louise, with the help of our volunteers, who make the sandwiches, bake the cakes, set the tables and, very importantly, give lifts to people, all contributing to the groups popularity and success.
THANK YOU to all of our wonderful Volunteers who give their gift of time, whether through helping us cater the event, washing-up, chatting to our clients or driving our clients to the event and home again.
We thank the three town Councils for their support of us in awarding grant applications.

Moor Social Groups are a great way to get out and meet people, have a piece of cake and a cuppa, join in with talks and activities or simply enjoy the company.
We know that it takes strength to join a new group, so we will always endeavour to accompany you to your first Moor Social.
We always do our best to help with transport to and from Moor Social groups, so please call us on 01364 712013 if you would like to come along and need help with transport. Please note that Louise works 2 days each week and so please leave a message and she will return your call.
We try to keep costs to a minimum and rely upon donations both from guests on the day and other organisations to help pay for staff and room hire costs.
Moorland Community Caring is very proud of the feedback we receive from our Moor Social Members – these events are sometimes the only time people get to leave their home and we are often humbled by the positive effect upon a person’s wellbeing after having 2 hours of laughter when connecting with others.
