Age UK Lincoln & South Lincolnshire is a local independent charity supporting people over the age of 50 to lead healthy and active lives. It's our mission to improve lives of older people in and around Lincoln and South Lincolnshire so they live safe and independently at home.

Story

1.2 milllion older people across the UK are experiencing loneliness on a daily basis. Some go for up to a month with only a TV or radio for company. We are trying to reduce those numbers; reaching more people in isolated areas, that's something we can't do that without your help.  As a local independent charity we rely on the fund raising support of businesses and individuals alike.

Elsie is a huge inspiration to all of us; who at 94 is embarking on the race in her wheelchair with the support of our carers. She is proving that with support you can achieve anything. From small tasks to remaining independent in your own home or completing a 10k! Our services are here to make older people #lovelaterlife
