A volunteer named Joyce Ryan lost her befriended elderly lady; in an unexpected circumstance. In general terms, it brought to the fore the widespread concept of loneliness and isolation; particularly in the elderly and the disabled. The sad occurrence caused the bereaved volunteer, and her associates to instigate debates and discussions, including reviews of the structure of care and contacts with those deemed to be vulnerable in the United Kingdom. The time, and nature of her befriended elderly lady's loss, brought back memories of her early deprivations in her own life. She also had extended reflections on the caring, giving and inclusive life of the lady that passed away.
