Our services
Age UK Lancashire believes that it is important to enable older people and their carers to have support to remain independent and to live interesting and fulfilled lives.
We offer a range of services to help older people across Lancashire make more of their lives. Our care services are available to help frailer older people or those who feel lonely or isolated. Services include social groups, luncheon clubs, exercise classes, computer lessons, home help services and much more. We aim to assist older people in remaining active, independent and linked into their local community.
Due to the ongoing Coronavirus situation, some of our services have changed to ensure we abide by current social contact guidelines. We also have some new services available in direct response to the pandemic, ensuring older people stay safe, well and connected.
