Story

The Power of 250 - Help Us Reach More Grandparents in Need

At Adopt A Grandparent, we’ve seen first-hand how powerful a simple conversation can be. This past year, thanks to supporters like you, we’ve connected hundreds of older people across the UK with volunteers for weekly one-to-one video calls that bring comfort, friendship and joy.

But we know there are still many more care homes and residents waiting to be reached - older people with no regular visitors, no family nearby, and far too few moments of connection in their week.

That’s why we’ve launched The Power of 250.

By donating £250, you’ll fund an entire year of weekly calls for one lonely older adult - helping them feel seen, valued and remembered. Every match is made with care, pairing each grandparent with a trained volunteer based on shared interests, culture or language. And every call takes place on a secure, AI-supported platform, giving families and care providers peace of mind.

The Power of 250 is about more than funding a call. It’s about giving someone something to look forward to.

Thank you so much for being part of this movement. We are incredibly grateful for your support.

Warmest wishes,

The Adopt A Grandparent Team
