All of their advisors are trained to give general advice but also with a focus on issues affecting those in later life, their carers and families.

Reengage
Re-engage is making life less lonely for thousands of older people every year. Older people tell us that our volunteer-led activities make them happier and more able to trust others.
As we get older, our social circles diminish, and we find ourselves with fewer and fewer people to turn to. Imagine realising one day that all your friends and family have gone from your life. Loneliness can be cruel, and it affects millions of people over 75 who live in social isolation. We offer Tea parties, call companions, rainbow call companions and activity groups, you can find out more here
