Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Hello! My name is Rebecca and, sadly, a few weeks ago my granny died.
Nanny would often say how lucky she was to have her family and friends around her. She was a great presence in her community and formed new companions wherever she went, fully aware that others are not always so fortunate.
Most people will feel lonely at some point in their lives. It’s a deeply personal experience that - in most cases - will thankfully pass. Sadly, 2.65m older people feel they have no one to turn to for help and around 3.9m older people consider TV to be their main form of company. Age UK is the country's leading charity dedicated to helping everyone make the most of later life, providing services and support at a national and local level to inspire, enable and support older people.
We are staging a cabaret on the 2nd February in order to raise as much money and awareness as we can to this amazing charity, and help AgeUK continue providing vital services that offer companionship, advice and support for older people facing later life alone.
