Join Us in Supporting Our Local Older Residents
The UK's population is aging rapidly. By 2030, 21.8% will be aged 65 or over, and the impact is profound. Locally, the current numbers are just as significant.
At Age UK Hillingdon, Harrow, and Brent (HHB), we’re transforming the narrative around aging. While aging can bring challenges, it also offers new freedoms and opportunities. Our mission is to support older individuals in maintaining their independence and enjoying life to the fullest.
Why Partner with Age UK HHB?
The demand for our services has surged post-pandemic. Despite our efforts, the need surpasses our resources. We rely on donations and grants to fill the funding gaps and ensure our services are sustainable. This is where your business can make a significant difference.
