Donate now to help our vital services for older people.
When Amrita's husband died, she was left totally alone.
Whole days would go by with no one to talk to. She was very lonely and grew increasingly depressed.
"My husband was very loving. It's all you need. I don't have anyone to talk to. I was very lonely."
Thanks to our supporters, Amrita now has her 'telephone friend' via our Telephone Friendship Service. Every week she looks forward to her calls. They make her feel less alone.
Your donation could help us bring friendship back into the lives of lonely older people.
If you or someone you know needs support, Age UK is here for you. Call the Age UK Advice Line on 0800 169 6565, 8am to 7pm, every day of the year, or find information and advice on our website.
