Smile A committee is an arrangement enabling one to share the blame with others. + + + A consultant is someone who always knows what to do until it happens to him. Transportation in the area is a matter of great concern. 1976 census statistics have indicated a high percentage of elderly people living in Huron who are no longer able to maintain a car or -where the sole driver is no longer present in the home. This group makes up 13 percent of Huron's population. "Independence is one of the most precious needs in everyone's life. Without transportation it is hard to maintain in- dependence," says Mrs. Linda Young, co- ordinator of the new Home -Help services. "Our 'agency is now, of- fering a service we feel is 'a must to help maintaina wholesome participation in the community." With a call to "Town and Country Homemakers" a driver will be sent to assist someone to an .ap- pointment; an errand or social activity. Donations for this ' service are gratefully received. A guiding hand is often appreciated in and out of stores or, up and down steps. Shopping can be made easier with a helping hand to carry groceries or parcels. They are looking for people with time on their hands to help provide this essential ''Tran- sportation Service" says Mrs. Young. This could be very rewarding for someone who is looking for a part-time job to fill some of those long hours. The agency staffs housecleaners whether ° for regular or heavy duty housecleaning, available to a 1c.;,one. Charges are based on the amount of cleaning needed and the ability to pay. Hairdressers and barbers will travel to the homebound doing hair. The day may seem much brighter if a travelling hairdresser has visited giving a perm, a wash or a set, to someone con- fined to the home by age or disability. The agency provides sitters for the elderly during the absence of the usual attending person. They also offer sitters for children in a crisis, situation, if the mother is absent .or ill, or if 'the parents wish to go° on a vacation. Mrs.. Young states they are aware that in the county there are many homebound people who often do not have family near to visit or call and so are organizing a group of volunteer visitors to drop in for a friendly visit, share a cup of tea, enjoy a smile, remember a birth- day or anniversary, just be a friend. Sharing can be a rewarding experience for you as a visitor. If you have time to spare and hobbies to share the agency would appreciate hearing from you.
