Age Scotland
Age Scotland is the national charity for older people. We work to improve the lives of everyone over the age of 50 so that they can love later life. We support and enable hundreds of community groups across Scotland, provide information and advice through our free helpline and publications, tackle loneliness and isolation with our Community Connecting Service and much more. We work to influence policymakers and run campaigns to make Scotland the best place in the world to grow older. Age Scotland was formed following the 2010 merger between Age Concern Scotland and Help the Aged in Scotland. Our Vision: A Scotland where everyone can love later life We work to: - Inspire people to see that they can change their own and others' later life for the better. - Engage with people and enable them to change later life for the better. - Support older people who are struggling as they live longer to achieve better, happier, healthier lives.
