SASCA is a social care agency that aims to help identify and meet the needs of Somali adults aged over 50 in Manchester. It does this through advocacy, information provision, health and social care support, activities, and referrals. A 2007 survey found high levels of poor health, isolation, and limited access to services among Somali elders. SASCA addresses these issues by providing social drop-ins with activities and peer support. It also advocates for elders and helps them access information, assessments, and develop skills for independent living. SASCA collaborates with other community organizations and stakeholders.
