Fundraise for us!

Help us improve quality of life for older people in care

Our vision is for a world where all older people in care settings live with dignity and respect, access to choices, their local communities, hobbies and interests, learning, and meaningful activities.

Why the community needs us

Alive! provides a wide range of fun, creative and innovative sessions which combat loneliness, anxiety and depression. We help develop sustainable relationships between care settings and their local communities, in order to reduce social isolation among residents. We train social care staff, which helps them develop more meaningful activities and relationships with older people and we advocate and campaign for improved quality of life for older people in care.

Our impact on the community

In 2015 7,700 older people in 385 care settings experienced improved mental health and emotional wellbeing and connected with others through participating in our activity sessions. 95% of homes reported that residents responded to Alive! sessions with improved mood. 500 staff from 300 care settings improved their ability to meet older people's emotional, intellectual and social needs through our training, skills development and peer support
