Age UK Islington

Aiming to maintain & increase the health & wellbeing of older people, adults 16yrs+ & unpaid carers

Age UK Islington provides information and guidance though our various services, including our Helpline. We offer people of all ages support with anything they’re struggling with or need guidance about.
We take the time to fully understand the issues that people are experiencing, whether this it is housing or money worries, getting out and about or if they are feeling isolated and lonely.
We start by listening to what they want to achieve and then we work out how they can get there. People might get in touch themselves or be referred by their GP or other health professionals.
We provide one-to-one support and have the expertise to match clients’ needs to support available through our network of partners – for both specialist support and social opportunities.

Last year:

Our Helpline handled 6847 enquiries

We provided 3092 well- being checks.

Our Carers Hub supported 2211 enquiries

“Everybody has got their own problems and it’s easier when we can share them. It isn’t so overwhelming when you’re not on your own.”
