Who we are

Two women drinking tea

Did you know that in Scotland over 20 per cent of the population are over the State Pension Age, that 8 per cent of those live in absolute poverty and that another 10 per cent are ‘materially deprived’?  This is just one reason why our work is so important.

Age Scotland is the leading charity for all older people in Scotland.  We campaign, we research and we fundraise to make sure we build a better life for everyone in later life. We ensure older people’s voices are heard, we challenge and change attitudes, we fight discrimination wherever we find it and we tackle elder abuse in all its forms. We put older people at the heart of everything we do. 

Age Scotland

  • provides confidential, impartial, simple information for free
  • helps people to claim their entitlements
  • celebrates creativity in later life
  • promotes healthy living and active ageing throughout the year
