Our Mission Statement
Our Mission is to provide services for older people regardless of race, gender, disability, sexual orientation, marital status or religious belief.
Age Concern Hounslow was established in 1993 and incorporated as a charitable company in April 1997. Age Concern England and Help the Aged came together on 1st April 2009 – in April 2010 we became known as Age UK and take the name of our respective locations, hence we are Age UK Hounslow. The founding principles of the organisation are to provide services for older people regardless of race, gender, disability, sexual orientation, marital status, ethnicity or religious belief.
Whatever your requirement, we will aim to assist you - if we are unable to help directly, we will try to suggest where assistance could be provided.
Our emphasis is on developing ‘preventative’ services in partnership with statutory and voluntary-sector partners. These include the London Borough of Hounslow, St Mary's University College, and Hounslow and Richmond Community Heathcare Primary Care Trust amongst others.
We fully involve our users in development, consulting them and using their views to shape our services.
Age UK Hounslow is a registered charity. It receives valuable support from the national organisation Age UK, as well as from the regional capacity-building organisation Age UK London.
