Help us set up new community activities

We're keen to set up new services and activities in response to the changing needs, circumstances and aspirations of older people in local communities. If you, or any organisation that you’re involved with, have any ideas that you’d like to discuss or just to explore with us, we’d be delighted to hear from you.

You can get in touch with us by calling 01204 701525 or emailing ageingwell@ageukbolton.org.uk.
