About Us
For latest SWAG news, see our Facebook page
Sway Welfare Aid Group (SWAG) was founded in 1970 to ensure that everyone living in Sway has someone to whom they can turn in an emergency, read about our history here.
Since these early days SWAG has expanded its services to support families and people of all ages living in the village and experiencing any kind of financial hardship. SWAG is now a registered charity run by unpaid trustees, who are elected each year by the village community.
We can help with financial support, practical support such as transportation for medical appointments, and we also run a Lunch Club and a Community Cafe. Find out more in the "How we can help" section of this website.
Volunteers make SWAG possible. If you can make a difference in your community please visit the "volunteers" section of this website to find out more on how to become a volunteer driver or lunch club helper.
SWAG is affiliated to the Good Neighbours Network, which is the organisation that advises around 120 voluntary care groups and good neighbour schemes within Hampshire.
SWAG is a charity registered with the Charity Commission. Our Registration number is 261220
