Bolster Community is a charity and social enterprise based in Newry, dedicated to providing practical support for individuals and families. We understand that sometimes, we all need a little help, and that's where Bolster Community comes in. As a not-for-profit organization, we work hands-on with individuals, families, and communities to help them overcome challenges and thrive.

Since our establishment in 2004, we have been privileged to support countless individuals in reaching their full potential. From early years to later years, we offer a range of services focused on three key areas: Family, Ability, and Seniors. Our Family Support Service provides practical and therapeutic assistance, along with various training programs for parents and children.

As coordinators of the Newry and Mourne Family Support Hub, we specialize in finding solutions for families facing physical and mental health issues, family breakdowns, parenting difficulties, financial problems, and social isolation. For individuals with disabilities, we have our Ability services, aimed at connecting children and young adults of mixed abilities. Through our Social Enterprise and online gift shop, we offer a safe and purposeful space for our volunteers and craft unique, handmade products, with all profits reinvested into our vital work.

Lastly, our Seniors services provide comfort and practical support to older members of the community. Whether it's through our social group, Comfort Zone, or our Home2Hospital driver service, we ensure that seniors have the company they need and the assistance they deserve. At Bolster Community, we're here to lend a helping hand, to support, strengthen, and empower individuals and families, every step of the way
