Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have thought long and hard about the charity that I would like to raise money for and decided to go for Age UK (combination of two charities - Age Concern and Help the Aged).  They are a fantastic charity who focus on providing essential services and care to elderly people to allow them to retain as much independence as possible and make the later years in their life more enjoyable.

They focus on a number of areas which include isolation, poverty, neglect, preventing future deprivation and they also have a presence abroad in developing countries. If you want more information on them then please visit: http://www.helptheaged.org.uk/en-gb/WhatWeDo/FactsAndFigures/WhatWeveAchieved/default.htm

Please dig deep and give what you can.

Many thanks for your help

About the charity

Age UK is the new force combining Age Concern and Help the Aged We believe that age needs respect. It needs kindness. Sometimes it needs help. Too many people experience difficulties as they age. We cannot promise everyone good health, but we will fight for good care for all of us. Where we find loneliness, we will reach out. When age becomes a burden, we will try to lighten the load. Age UK will campaign. We will fundraise. We will research. We will make the powers that be listen. We will do all this to make life better for older people here and abroad. Age UK is for all of us, because age is a part of life.
