Raising money for

Help the Aged

Charity Registration No. 272786

Help the Aged is an international charity dedicated to creating a world where older people can live their lives free from poverty, isolation and neglect. It raises public awareness, campaigns for changes in policy, and provides practical support to help disadvantaged older people lead independent lives. Help the Aged believes that older people should not be sidelined by society, but should be able to live with dignity as valued, respected and involved members of their communities.

On 1 April 2009, Age Concern England and Help the Aged joined together to create a new charity dedicated to improving the lives of older people.

Operating under the name ‘Age Concern and Help the Aged’, we speak with one voice on behalf of all older people.

My story

Thanks for visiting the Centrica Graduates Arch 2 Arc fundraising page. We really are training as hard as we can to make sure we achieve our end goal - to complete this challenge and raise as much money as possible! Our fundraising target on this page is £5,000 but we really hope to exceed this and raise as much money as we can!

The challenge consists of a run from Marble Arch in London to Dover, a swim across the Channel and a cycle from the coast to the Arc de Triomph in Paris. The team will be undertaking this as a relay, changing every hour.

More info can be found at the following address: http://www.enduroman.com/archtoarc.html

We have made a group decision that all the money raised will be donated to Help The Aged charity.

This fundraising page is only one way in which we are looking to raise money, we also have a number of events lined up which Im sure you will all hear about shortly!

So please sponsor us now! Anything would be very much appreciated by all of us.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Help the Aged gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

If you would like to know further information on the event please do not hesitate to contact any of us.
