Alongside 24 intrepid JLL colleagues from across our amazing UK Tenant Rep team, I’m taking on the Three Peaks Challenge to support people like my mum, who has shown incredible strength through the loss of her partner and her diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Dementia.

Being her only immediate family living in Scotland has made this journey difficult, but through the support of her wonderful care companion, Nic, I know first hand what an enormous difference the support provided can make to our lives.

By fundraising for Age UK, I hope to help more older people and their families who rely on a helping hand to support their loved ones, because no one should feel forgotten. I appreciate how small acts of support can really change lives, ensuring older people, like mum, live with dignity, care, connection and reassurance.

££££££ Your donation will help fund services that make a real and lasting difference, including:

The Age UK Advice Line – expert guidance on health, housing, benefits, care and more. A lifeline for thousands of older people who need support. Just £10 can help fund a call to the Age UK Advice Line - a single call that can change someone’s day or even their life

The Telephone Friendship Service – pairing older people with volunteers for regular chats to help reduce loneliness and isolation.

£25 can help connect 3 older people with a long-term telephone friend.

Local Age UKs – offering community support like day centres, home visits, practical help, and social groups that keep people connected.

Nearly a million older people aged 65+ in the UK are often lonely - some with the added cruel illness of Alzheimer's Dementia, just like my mum. Your donation WILL make a difference.

Thank you. Ben
