Support Older People in Westminster

Age UK Westminster is facing rising demand for services. Your donation ensures we can continue providing a lifeline to vulnerable older adults.
Can you support us with a donation?
Welcome to Age UK Westminster
We are an independent charity supporting older people in Westminster for over 70 years. Our services aim to empower older people to understand their rights and lead more fulfilling and socially active lives.
New analysis by Age UK has found that 198,000 older people in London can go for a month without meeting up with a friend, and that 19,000 over 65s in the region have not even had a conversation with family or friends over the same period. Many people experience loneliness at some point in their lives. For the majority the feeling of loneliness passes, yet for some it can persist, undermining their well-being and impacting negatively on their quality of life.
We are asking for donations to help us run initiatives, activities and provide support to older people with dementia in Westminster. We are running a fundraising campaign to help us achieve our aims.
