Age UK Lambeth needs your support to provide a Christmas Dinner for the most isolated older people

On Christmas Day volunteers from Age UK Lambeth will be cooking up turkey and all the trimmings and providing dinner, gifts and entertainment for 40 of the most socially isolated older people across the borough of Lambeth at their community hub Vida’s. We will also be providing a further 20 meals for those who would prefer to be at home and we need your help to make it happen.

Could you make a donation to provide a Christmas Lunch for a lonely older person?

Winter and the festive season can be tough for older people, it gets dark early, the bad weather can make people worried to go out and as so much of the focus in the media is on family time, you can feel especially isolated if you don’t have any family nearby. In fact half a million older people across the UK will spend Christmas Day alone.
