Every bite counts
Almost 1.5 million older people feel more lonely at Christmas than any other time of year. This year will be harder than ever as many older people also struggle to make ends meet due to the Cost of Living Crisis. Our support services become invaluable lifelines for the most vulnerable older people over the Winter, offering help with finances, housing, health and wellbeing.
