Home Repairs

If you need minor home repairs, handy persons are available to provide assistance. They can fix leaky faucets, change hard-to-reach light bulbs, program garage door openers, and do similar kinds of small odd jobs.

Volunteer Nurses

Nurse volunteers provide medical support services to residents. They can monitor your blood pressure and provide other valuable services. (Please see Nursing Services)

Fearrington Friends

Fearrington Friends connects volunteers with anyone who desires regular contact from a “neighbor.” This contact could be as simple as a daily telephone call or a regular in-person visit. Friends can help by watering plants, sorting mail or going out for a stroll. Friends can also provide brief respite for caregivers. If you would like to have a Fearrington Friend contact you, call 542-6877.

Computer Help Group

If you need help setting up equipment, installing software, troubleshooting and more, Fearrington Cares has volunteers ready to assist you. Please call the office at 542 6877 and leave your name and phone number. Indicate whether you have a Mac or a PC and a brief description of your need.

All of these services are available at no cost to Fearrington residents. You are invited and encouraged to use them when needed.
