"A local charity working in the community to deliver services and activities for older people."
We are a local charity working in the community of Waltham Forest to support older people, their families and carers. We want everyone to be able to love later life. visit our website here.
During this unprecedented time we are still offering our Information & Advice service for older people, from simple information, advice and signposting, and welfare benefit checking through to form-filling via the phone.
Our Just Connect service which would normally offer hourly, weekly visits by volunteers for up to 6 months to housebound and isolated adults, is now running as a telephone befriending service. We hope to reinstate home visits when it is safe to do so.
Our shopping service is running. If you live in the borough of Waltham
Forest and are over the age of 60 in
isolation and unable to rely on family or trusted friends for support. Our volunteers can shop and deliver essential food shopping to your doorstep.
Please call Age UK Waltham Forest to find out more: 0208 558 5512
We simply could not change the lives of so many older people without the astonishing commitment from our volunteers. If you would like to join us in our mission to make sure everyone can love later life, visit our website or apply via Do-it.org.
