What our donation will help fund

Gifts like these make a huge difference to our work and enable us to continue to support over 5,000 people in Lewisham & Southwark through our different services:

- Connecting our older people to community groups, addressing isolation and helping older people continue to learn and build new relationships in later life
- Empowering our community, ensuring that ageing doesn’t impact our wellbeing, ability to access services or our independence
- Protecting the human rights of local older people, ensuring they are able to live safely and healthily

From helping alleviate poverty to installing hand-rails, our team champion the rights and wellbeing of older people, ensuring that later life is full of opportunity - and that ageing doesn’t impact our ability to live safely.

Thank you to the Benefact group for this generous gift, Age UK Lewisham & Southwark relies on the kindness of others. During the continued rising cost of living, people need our support more than ever and our services are struggling to meet the demand in the current financial climate. Your donation helps us reach more people and have lifechanging conversations sooner. On behalf of our staff, volunteers and older people, thank you. You are helping create a world where we can all love later life.
