Clarity Locums x ALONE: A Partnership with Purpose

At Clarity Locums, we believe in the power of people—our team, our clients, and our community. That’s why we’re proud to share something close to our hearts: our new partnership with ALONE, an incredible Irish charity that supports older people to age at home with dignity, comfort, and connection.

This collaboration is more than just a partnership; it's a shared mission to create meaningful change. Whether it’s through hands-on help, lending an ear, or challenging yourself in the name of a good cause, there are so many ways you can get involved.

Corporate Maintenance Day: Roll Up Your Sleeves

We’re kicking off with a hands-on initiative, Corporate Maintenance Days at ALONE’s Supported Housing communities. These days are all about making a tangible difference, whether it’s painting, gardening, or taking on small building projects.

It's teamwork in its truest form: a small group of Clarity volunteers coming together to brighten up the homes and lives of older people in the community.

Volunteer Opportunities: Befriending & Support

Not everyone can spare a full day, but giving even an hour a week can change a life. ALONE offers two fantastic long-term volunteering options:

1. Telephone Support and Befriending
A simple weekly phone call, just one hour, can provide companionship, reminders, and connection. It’s perfect for remote volunteers and only requires a six-month commitment.

2. Visitation Support and Befriending
Prefer something face-to-face? This option involves a weekly visit to an older person, building genuine relationships over time. It’s a year-long commitment and Garda vetting is required, but the rewards are immeasurable.

We’ll help connect interested volunteers with ALONE’s Volunteer Support Officer to make the process seamless.

Wellness Meets Giving: Fundraising Fun

If you’re the type who loves a personal challenge, ALONE’s fundraising events offer the perfect blend of purpose and adventure:

  • Take part in a run or marathon? Fundraise for ALONE while you’re at it and get a branded t-shirt to show your support.
  • Feeling adventurous? ALONE’s new Abseil for ALONE event at Dalkey Quarry is coming up—a great way to push your limits while supporting a cause.

Raising Awareness Together

As part of the International Day of Older Persons on October 1st, ALONE will be running fundraising collections across key locations in Dublin. We’ll need enthusiastic volunteers to help raise awareness and funds—an easy way to contribute with a big impact.

This partnership reflects our values—compassion, community, and action. Whether you’re helping out for a few hours or committing to a long-term role, you are making a real difference.

We invite everyone at Clarity Locums to find the opportunity that fits them best. Let’s work together to support older people in living not just longer, but better lives.

Interested in getting involved? Reach out to us—we’ll guide you through every option.

Clarity Locums + ALONE = Real Impact. Let’s make it happen.
