The Live Wire

Welcome

Age UK is the new force combining Age Concern and Help the Aged. We are working for a better later life today and tomorrow. We celebrate ageing and work to create opportunity in later life. And we fight and challenge disadvantage and unfairness wherever we find it.

Here you will find specific information and links to our advocacy and campaigning work- all firmly based on the experiences of people in later life. For information about all other aspects of Age UK's work please go to www.ageuk.org.uk.

Government, Parliament and politics are major influences on the lives of older people. We actively promote the interests of people in later life to Government and politicians from across the political spectrum.

We work hard to engage parliamentarians on a range of key issues of importance to people in later life; from income to health and social care, housing to employment. To find out more, contact us.
