Support Hub for Older People

0117 929 7537

What is the Support Hub?

The Support Hub for Older People has been created to help older people in Bristol and their families to cope with the impact of coronavirus [COVID-19]. It is made up of 40+ organisations who are working together to support older people by offering practical, emotional and social support. Age UK Bristol is one of those organisations and we help co-ordinate the Support Hub’s work.

The Support Hub provides a range of different support for older people via our helpline, including Practical Support, Emotional Support and Social Support.
