This winter, there are more than two million older people like Veronica living in poverty. And far too many are forced to choose between heating or eating. There have never been so many people who urgently need our help.

Your gift of £10 could help us answer a call and transform lives like Veronica’s. Over the years, she’s had increasing health concerns that affect her day-to-day life, which coupled with the rising cost of living left her feeling overwhelmed, not knowing who or where to ask for help.

“To me Independent Age is such a tonic, better than any medicine. I know there is someone I can ring and say, I don’t quite know what to do about this.” – Veronica

Please give £10 today, so our friendly team can offer expert advice and support to the next person in urgent need of help. Or you can give a monthly donation to help us be there time and time again for older people like Veronica.

Our helpline can often mean the world. With your support, together we can help older people remain independent, living happy, purposeful and connected lives.
