About Us

Call us: 07535 164 014

Laughter, connection, value and friendship all play a vital role in our well-being. Meaningful connection and community help our sense of belonging and purpose into later life.

Caraway aims to facilitate this for older people across Southampton. Founded in 2018 we have been growing a dedicated team of Chaplains and volunteers who come alongside older people and help them to navigate the experiences and changes later life brings.

Whether a home visit, a telephone call, or at a local community group or Care Home – we aim to:

• Combat loneliness
• Create community
• Celebrate life

"I don't think I could ever put into words the help, inspiration and kindness you have been to my dear Mum."

Mary, Chaplaincy

You do see your friends and neighbours, all being brought in. It’s a relaxed atmosphere . It means you do feel included in the church family. We’re a very close family and have friends of friends of friends, but the young people, they don’t have anybody . It continued church as I haven’t been so well lately after a fall. My balance is poor and my voice isn’t what it used to be, and I love to sing. I always knew when it was time to get up as I could hear Grandma in the kitchen, she sang.

Just a quick message to say thank you for the ‘Holiday at Home’ again this year. What a special and unique event and what a team & formula you have put together. I was sat next to two ladies 89 and 94 and both also fully enjoyed it. It is the Lord’s work and a real domain of the kingdom.

Holiday at Home Guest – 2024

TO EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THE CREATION OF HOLIDAY AT HOME - "A TASTE OF SPAIN" Many thanks indeed for such an enjoyable time - and a delicious meal! The children's performances were wonderful!

I see spiritual care as far more than just whether they go to a church or have a faith or not, it is linked to their whole being.
