A bit about us
Good Company, right on your doorstep
We started The Good Company People as a not-for-profit organisation in 2020 with the aim of helping over 60’s enjoy more independent, fulfilling, lives for longer.
It all began with our Co-Founder, Lucy’s much-loved mum Hazel, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease Dementia at 69. Lucy’s goal was to help her mum to continue doing all the things she enjoyed before diagnosis like sewing, baking, and arts and crafts, and give her dad a regular break from caring.
Seeing how much Hazel enjoyed spending time with like-minded individuals and feeling stimulated by continuing with the things she loved, Lucy and her team could see how others living with mild cognitive impairment and dementia could benefit from regular Good Company too. And thus, The Good Company People was born!
Since then, we have set up Good Company services across East Sussex, covering Crowborough, Forest Row, Mayfield, Rotherfield, Groombridge, and Wadhurst. Our mission is to
provide fun, stimulating, good company experiences right on your doorstep.
