Our Digital Champion volunteers can help you get friendly with your laptop, iPad or Smartphone so you can operate it confidently and safely, we can even loan you a Tablet so you can practice in your own home and at your own pace. Support can be provided over the phone, online, or at one of our community hubs by prearranged appointment. We can offer a home visit to help you set up a device and connect to the internet if needed.

Being able to remain comfortable, supported and safe at home is a priority for many people. Whether you live alone, are experiencing physical difficulties, or feel vulnerable living at home, having someone else sharing your home could make a real difference.
Homeshare brings together older people who have spare rooms, with people who need affordable accommodation who are happy to chat and lend a hand. Sharing a home brings so many benefits, find out if it could work for you!
Come along and join our group walks for people who are interested in moving more, and being more sociable. All walks are very gentle, and are designed to be accessible to everyone of all fitness levels. They are planned around level terrain and accessibility. This includes regular benches for resting, access to toilets and nearby parking or easy access by public transport. Walks are usually around 15 - 20 minutes long, and no more than half a mile.
We would love to share our latest updates with you, our monthly newsletters bring topical advice, local opportunities, project updates and much more! Sign up to receive our publications, news and guidance below.
Your donations enable us to provide vital information and advice enabling older people to tackle the challenges of later life.
From a simple cake sale to jumping out of a plane, your fundraising efforts can make a real difference.
Whether you have an hour or a day to spare, we have lots of opportunities for volunteers.
If you decide to leave a gift to Age UK Gloucestershire in your Will, you will be supporting us to make life better for older people in Gloucestershire.
