Re-engage is dedicated to fighting loneliness in old age. We help people over 75 who are facing loneliness and social isolation to re-engage with their communities through regular social contact, giving them a lifeline of friendship and something to look forward to. We have also recently launched call companions; our telephone befriending service for thousands of vulnerable older people in the UK.

Story

"The time I feel most lonely is after six o'clock at night but when I have been out to a Contact tea then I don't feel lonely at all, just fresh memories of a lovely afternoon out with friends"

Please sponsor BSkyB team running for Contact the Elderly in the 2007 British 10K on Sunday 1st July.

Every runner has paid for their place out of their own pocket so every penny raised will be used to help launch the groups.  We'll keep all sponsors updated with their progress and let you know when they first meet - so you can see where your money has gone, and what difference your kind gifts have made.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Contact The Elderly will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Please, please, please give as much as you can.
