The Seniors Alert Scheme aims to encourage community support for vulnerable older people in our communities by providing grant assistance towards the purchase and installation of personal monitored alarms to enable older persons, of limited means, to continue to live securely in their homes with confidence, independence and peace of mind.
This is a community led scheme, and is administered by local community and voluntary groups with the support of my Department. The following table sets out, on a county basis, the funds granted to community bodies who sought funding for the installation of alarms for the years 2011, 2012 and 2013. Further data in relation to the Seniors Alert Scheme are available on my Department’s website at the following weblink: http://www.environ.ie/en/Community/SeniorsAlert/
