Christmas is approaching fast, how exciting for most of us. But for some some, it will be a sad event.

Do something amazing this Christmas and help combat loneliness. Contact Age Uk who are actively trying to recruit more volunteers, read on….

Age UK is the country’s largest charity dedicated to helping everyone make the most of later life.

The over-60s is the fastest-growing group in society and there are more of us than ever before.

Ageing is not an illness, but it can be challenging. At Age UK we provide services and support at a national and local level to inspire, enable and support older people.

We stand up and speak for all those who have reached later life, and also protect the long-term interests of future generations.

A world where everyone can love later life

Our vision is ambitious. It won’t be easy to get there, and it won’t be a quick journey, but we believe it’s how things should be for older people and we work every day to achieve this.

Age UK would not be able to function properly without the dedication of the more than 75,000 volunteers who get involved and help all older people to make the most of later life.
