We'll help you stay independent.

A service for older people registered with GP surgeries in Wellingborough, Kettering and East Northants.

We provide support to help people stay independent and safe at home for longer.

What does the service offer?

An Age UK Northamptonshire member of staff can visit you at home to find out how we can help.  It is a chance to talk through any worries you may have and explain the different services available in your area, such as shopping, medication to be delivered, transport to medical appointments.

  • We try to help you sort out matters which are causing you worry
  • We can give advice or find out information for you
  • We can fill in benefit forms, open letters for you or make telephone calls on your behalf if you wish

If you, or someone you know, could benefit from a bit of company or the chance to have a chat on a regular basis we can help you find a befriending service.

Who is it for?

For older people registered with GP surgeries in Wellingborough, Kettering and East Northants.
