Age UK

Age UK combined Age Concern and Help the Aged in the spring of 2010.
They are now one of the most powerful and influential organisations in the UK.
A world in which older people flourish is a world in which older people will:
- be equal citizens with equal rights
- have enough money for a secure and decent life, and have access as consumers to the products and services they need at a price they can afford
- have access to the healthcare and social care they need
- have the opportunity to live healthier longer lives and to enjoy a sense of well-being
- live in homes and neighbourhoods that are safe and comfortable and which enable them to lead fulfilling lives
- have opportunities to participate and contribute as volunteers, active citizens, good neighbours, family members, and workers
- enjoy the benefits of longer life, wherever they are in the world.
