Independent Age focuses on improving the lives of people facing financial hardship in later life. Our Helpline and expert advisors offer free, practical support to older people struggling with their finances. Through our grants programme, we support hundreds of local organisations working directly with older people across the UK. We use the knowledge and insight gained from our support services and partnerships to highlight the issues experienced by older people facing financial hardship and campaign for change.
We provide confidential, free and impartial advice and information over the telephone for older people, their families and carers on issues such as money and benefits, housing, care and support, and more. We also provide free guides and factsheets which are full of information to help older people boost their income,
find the care they need, remain independent, choose the right place to live, stay connected with others and more. Good to Know Groups, are free telephone groups for people aged 65+ to connect with new friends and to learn more about the issues that matter to them.
