Independent Age Funding Success

We are delighted to share the news that our application for a grant from Independent Age to help older people experiencing financial hardship was successful. We are one of 19 organisations that have received a grant from Independent Age. This grant is from a £3.1 million fund that they set up to give to charities that provide advice to older people, ensuring they receive the financial support they are entitled to and are protected from unfair costs. This funding will help us extend our support to meet the demand from older people over the coming years and to hire a specialised over 65s Social Welfare Caseworker. It means that we can reach not just the people who already know about us and would usually come to us, but also go further in reaching out to the most vulnerable older people in our communities. This will help us to make such a positive impact on this demographic of people. We would like to thank Independent Age for their funding and all the incredible work they do.
