Our services

Age UK Bristol offers lots of services for older people and their carers.

Our services

  • Information and Advice

    Our Information & Advice service is available for people over 55 who live or work in Bristol. We also offer advice to family members who are supporting older relatives who are over 55 and live in Bristol.

    The service is provided by a small staff team and a team of trained volunteers. We can offer advice and information on a wide range of issues.

  • New Beginnings Day Centre

    We offer a regular programme of activities that include exercise, dance, arts and crafts, singing, baking, walking, gardening, visits from local school children and outside entertainment. We regularly have 12 - 20 people attend per day, which creates an exciting friendly atmosphere, and a two course hot meal freshly prepared daily in the onsite café.

  • Memory Connections

    Memory Connections run groups for people living in Bristol with mild to moderate memory loss. The sessions improve memory skills, build confidence, and offer the opportunity to socialise in a fun and supportive environment. Group members will be able to take part in meaningful and stimulating exercises, proven to help maintain memory and mental functioning.

Linkage

  • Art Club on Zoom

    An informal online group with the aim of enjoying being creative together - all levels welcome!

  • Join a Tai Chi class

    Tai Chi Shibashi can be done sitting or standing, which makes it very accessible and its benefits have been well researched. It can improve balance and cognitive function as well as aid with pain management.

  • Friends Ageing Better

    Join a community created by and for older people in Bristol. We run meet-up cafes across Bristol for people to connect and find out about what's going on in their local area. We also publish e-newsletters and printed newsletters for those not online.

Working in partnership

  • Celebrating Age Festival

    The Celebrating Age Festival, whilst focusing on those over 50, always offers something for everyone and is a fantastic opportunity to try a new craft, make new friends and share experiences.

  • Bristol Research Forum on Ageing

    The research forum was set up to communicate the results of relevant policy research to planners, managers, service providers and users in the Bristol area.

  • Bristol Support Hub for Older People

    The Support Hub is made up of over 40 local charities and organisations across Bristol and was formed in response to the pandemic. The hub provides a range of different support for older people via our helpline, including practical support, emotional support and social support. 

  • Ageing Well Pilots

    The Ageing Well programme aims to improve the quality of life of older people, so that everyone in Bristol, North Somerset, and South Gloucestershire (BNSSG) can stay well as they get older.

    Age UK Bristol is leading on two of these pilots, Active Lives and Connecting Communities.
