About us

Age UK Hammersmith & Fulham is an independent local charity supporting older people across the borough. We provide a wide range of practical services and activities that aim to enable people to maintain their independence, sustain their physical and mental health, and reduce loneliness and isolation.

We are committed to reducing poverty and fighting disadvantage, defeating ageism and recognising diversity, addressing social exclusion and promoting more effective and responsive public services for older people.

Our main office and activity centre is based in Greyhound Road and we have a charity shop in the West 12 Centre in Shepherd's Bush.

We rely on your support to keep serving the community. We are partly funded by the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham and are supported by donations from the public, income from our charity shop, and some charitable grants.

We recognise and welcome the diversity of older adults and their different needs, choices, cultures and values and the diversity of our volunteers, supporters and staff.
