Team fundraising for Hourglass (Safer Ageing)

Raising money for Hourglass (Safer Ageing)

We are Hourglass - the only UK-wide charity dedicated to calling time on the harm, abuse and exploitation of older people. We provide a Helpline and programmes to deliver direct support to victims and survivors of abuse. We campaign to stop harm of older people and to promote safer ageing for all.

Story

This year we will be coming together for our third and final Dragon Boat Race – Just Oarsome - The Final Showdown!

Following the enormous success of our previous two events, we’re getting competitive on the water again for this year’s charity challenge. We’ll be raising funds for our charity partner, Hourglass to support their mission to end the harm, abuse and exploitation of older people in the UK.

This year’s Dragon Boat Race will take place in Wimbledon Park in London on Saturday 19 September from midday until 6pm.

Every year, more than a million older people are physically, emotionally, financially or sexually abused in the UK. At Hourglass, our mission is simple, no older person should be harmed or abused. . Your donations help fund our vital services including our freephone Helpline, community and peer support groups, professional training, awareness raising and campaigning - to support all victims, prevent elder abuse, and improve services across the UK that support older people.
