I was talking to one of my senior friends yesterday. She is a shut-in. She told me that she uses Gallivant in Darien and the Red Cross to drive her places. She also uses Voluntary Services for the Blind. She said they do all sorts of things for people and highly recommends them.
Here is a link to their site:

Blog Topic: "Aging at Home" -- This blog provides information to help fiercely independent seniors to stay in their homes as long as they want. The national movement is called "Aging in Place." I was a founding member of the Board of Directors for At Home In Darien.

The Red Cross is now taking seniors shopping. Formerly, the Red Cross would only shop for seniors who could not get out to the store themselves. Now, Red Cross volunteers will pick seniors up and shop with them and take them home.
