HandyVan is a programme that improves quality of life and provides peace of mind to older people by making their homes more safe and secure.

Many older people need some support to remain living independently in their own homes.  The Age NI HandyVan service provides peace of mind to older people by making their homes more safe and secure.  This helps boost their confidence and independence and reduces the risk of loss through burglary.
