Our History

Age UK West Sussex, Brighton and Hove is an independent local charity working in the local community to help older people.

Over the years we've grown in size in order to provide vital services to those in need, firstly as Age Concern, then in 2010 changing our name to Age UK.

Initially we were three separate organisations Age UK West Sussex, Age UK Brighton & Hove and Age UK Horsham District we merged in 2020 to become Age UK West Sussex, Brighton and Hove.
