I am going to complete my 40 for 40 challenge for Age Uk Kirklees and Caderdale by wearing onesies in the office throughout the whole of December. Just a few things to think about this Christmas...
Half of all people aged 75 and over live ALONE.
Half a million older people will spend Christmas day ALONE.
1 in 10 people aged 65 or over say they are always or often feel lonely – that’s just over A MILLION PEOPLE.
1 in 3 say a visit to the local shops is their main source of social interaction.
Shockingly, half of all older people consider the television their main form of company.
My act is small but could make a difference to the support that Age Uk could offer some of these people.
