New partnership with Christ Church Luncheon Group in Aughton

Good food, friendly conversation, and reliable guidance when you need it most. A new community connection in Aughton is making it much easier for local residents living with Parkinson’s and their families to feel supported and understood.

Radfield Home Care Liverpool North, Sefton & Ormskirk has joined forces with Parkinson’s UK and the Christ Church Luncheon Group in Aughton. Together, this partnership brings local meals, social companionship, and specialist Parkinson’s information together under one roof.

A welcoming place to share a meal and find advice

The Christ Church Luncheon Group has long been a cherished fixture in Aughton, giving local older adults a warm, friendly space to get together, enjoy a hot meal, and catch up with neighbours. By teaming up with Parkinson’s UK and Radfield Home Care, the group is expanding what it offers, turning regular lunch gatherings into an informal hub for Parkinson’s awareness, practical guidance, and peer support.

Whether you are living with Parkinson’s, caring for a relative, or simply looking to stay connected with your local community, these sessions offer an unhurried setting to ask questions, pick up helpful resources, and chat with people who understand.

What our local partners say

Creating strong support networks relies on local organisations working hand-in-hand. Here is what our partners had to say about joining forces:

• Parkinson’s UK Spokesperson: “Local community partnerships are incredibly valuable in helping people feel connected, supported and informed. We look forward to working together and raising awareness of Parkinson’s within the community.”
• Diane Reynolds (Christ Church Luncheon Group): “Our luncheon group is built around friendship, companionship and community. We are delighted to be working with Parkinson’s UK and Radfield Home Care to build on what we already do and provide an even stronger network of support for local people.”
• Lesley Malone (Community Engagement Coordinator, Radfield Home Care): “Supporting people is about much more than care at home—it is also about connection, friendship and helping people remain part of their community. We are proud to be part of this new partnership in Aughton.”
