Raising money for

Contact the Elderly

Charity Registration No. 244681

We are the only national charity solely dedicated to fighting loneliness and acute isolation in old age. We organise regular, monthly tea parties on a Sunday afternoon in the homes of our volunteers across the UK. These outings are a ray of light in the lives of older people living alone; giving them something to look forward to in the knowledge that someone cares and the opportunity to make new and lasting friendships with fellow guests and our volunteers.

Contact the Elderly is a registered charity in England and Wales (244681) and in Scotland (SC039377)

My story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I am one of a group of 70 terrific people who are running to raise money for our wonderful charity, Contact the Elderly. www.contact-the-elderly.org.uk We offer a lifeline for socially isolated older people and organise Sunday afternoon tea parties and friendship on a monthly basis UK wide. Apart from donating you may wish to become involved as a driver or host or both. Please let me know and I will be delighted to send you literature and an application form. I can assure you that you will have so much fun and will change the lives of many old people by volunteering.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Contact The Elderly 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.

So please sponsor me now!

Thanks so much, David Whittaker
