Life begins at 50, so they say. If you’re fit and healthy you may want to take a round-the-world trip, play golf every day, or study for a degree. If you’re not so fit you might want to take things a bit easier. And we can help in all sorts of ways so that you can keep your independence. For example, we can help with rubbish collection; mobile and home library services; concessionary fares; mobility aids, sheltered housing, council tax benefits - it’s a long list. And if you don’t have internet access at home you might be reading this, without charge, on a computer in your local library.
This page will help you to gain quick and easy access to information, services, grants and support so that life becomes just a bit easier. We have also listed other organisations that provide information and support for older people.
If you have any comments about this page, improvements, or advice that would be helpful to other older people, use the contact us button and send us your ideas.
