Story

Glasgow's Golden Generation has been supporting older adults for over 70 years, and now the charity and the people we support need your help more than ever.

Everyday the charity is taking calls from housebound older adults who need essentials such as milk, bread and other basics we take for granted.

Through its emergency project delivering these necessities as well as its telephone befriending and welfare services, the charity is a lifeline to lonely and isolated older adults.

Please help us to support older adults in Glasgow by donating to our appeal today.

Here's what people who have received our support are saying:

Thank you for the parcel of essentials, it's very much appreciated, this will help a lot whilst at home.

I nearly cried when I saw it all. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Can't help but feel stronger when you're supported by so many others.

It's nice to know although the centre is closed the staff are phoning regularly, it's nice to know they are still caring for us.
