We need your feedback

At Age UK Westminster, we're always looking for ways to improve our services and ensure we're meeting the needs of older people in our community.

That's why we'd be grateful if you could take a few minutes to complete our short survey. Your feedback will help us understand what's working well, what could be improved, and how we can continue to support you in the future.

Complete the survey here:
https://forms.office.com/e/XgncShdUdU

The survey should take no more than 10–15 minutes to complete, and all responses will be treated confidentially.

Your experiences and opinions are incredibly important to us. By sharing your feedback, you'll be helping us improve services for yourself and other older people across Westminster.

Leave a gift that lasts a lifetime

At Age UK Westminster, we believe every older person deserves to feel valued, supported, and connected. Thanks to people like you, we’re able to provide vital services, from companionship and advice to practical, day-to-day support.

But did you know you can continue making a difference long into the future?

By leaving a gift in your Will, you can help ensure that older people in Westminster are never left behind.

Why consider leaving a gift?

A legacy gift can:

• Help combat loneliness and isolation

• Fund essential advice and support services

• Provide life-changing assistance to those most in need.

After taking care of your loved ones, even a small percentage of your estate can have a lasting impact on your community.

Staying safe in the heat

With temperatures rising this summer, we want to help you stay safe, well and comfortable during periods of hot weather.

Hot weather can affect anyone, but older people and those with health conditions can be more vulnerable to heat exhaustion and heatstroke.

Here are some simple ways to stay safe during a heatwave:

• Drink plenty of water throughout the day, even if you do not feel thirsty

• Keep your home cool by closing curtains or blinds during the hottest part of the day

• Open windows when the temperature is cooler, especially in the evening

• Wear loose, lightweight clothing

• Avoid going outside during the hottest hours, usually between 11am and 3pm

• Use a damp cloth or cool pack on your neck and wrists to help cool down

• Please also keep an eye on neighbours, friends and relatives who may need extra support during hot weather.

Signs of heat exhaustion can include:

• Dizziness

• Headaches

• Feeling weak or faint

• Heavy sweating

• Nausea or cramps

If someone becomes confused, stops sweating, has difficulty breathing or loses consciousness, this could be heatstroke, which is a medical emergency. Call 999 immediately.

If you need support or advice, please do not hesitate to reach out to a trusted family member, neighbour or healthcare professional.

Take care and stay safe this summer.

Coming soon: new help at home & basic footcare services

We are pleased to announce that Age UK Westminster will be launching two new paid-for support services in September designed to help older people remain independent, safe and comfortable.

We are currently gauging interest and inviting people to join our waiting list ahead of launch.

Help at Home Service – £30 per hour

Our Help at Home Service provides practical, reliable support for older people who may be finding everyday household tasks more difficult due to age, mobility issues, ill health, frailty, bereavement or changing circumstances.

Support may include:

• Light cleaning and tidying
• Laundry and changing bed linen
• Basic kitchen cleaning
• Help keeping living spaces safe and manageable
• Practical support to reduce risks around the home
• Companionship
• Respite support so carers can take a break
• Regular friendly contact and reassurance

This service is designed to complement existing support and help older people maintain a clean, comfortable and dignified home environment.

Basic Footcare & Nail Cutting Service – £30 per appointment

Our Basic Footcare Service supports older people with routine foot and nail care to help maintain comfort, mobility and independence.

The service may include:

• Basic toenail cutting
• Fingernail cutting
• Simple foot checks
• Advice on everyday foot comfort and hygiene
• Signposting or referrals where specialist support may be needed

Please note that this is a non-clinical, preventative service and is not suitable for complex foot conditions or medical treatment needs.

If you, a family member, or someone you support may be interested in either service, we would love to hear from you.
