We’re delighted to hit the road as Lothian’s Charity of Choice to showcase how we can help keep older people connected. We hope our messaging reaches even more people and amplifies that we are here to provide friendship and support to older people on every street across Scotland.

Good news but very regrettable its taken so long and so many went through last winter without that vital support. The First Minister should commit to using whatever new money comes to Scotland as a result on increasing the Pension Age Winter Heating Payment

With an ageing population, people are living longer but not necessarily living longer in good health. Age Scotland’s latest campaign Act Now, Age Better stresses that with the right choices in midlife, we can help ourselves to maintain a healthier later life.
