Our services

Age UK Solihull has a well established range of services that have been developed over 30 years of experience in meeting the needs of older and vulnerable people in Solihull. These services are constantly under review to ensure that they are fully effective and efficient in their delivery, and consistent with the requirements of our funders, and most of all, meet the needs of local people and their families and carers.

Current Service Status

Please be aware that due to the current coronavirus pandemic, we’ve had to postpone or suspend some of our services. We apologise for any inconvenience or distress that this may be causing, and we hope to restart some of our face-to-face services over the coming months. Please keep checking our website for updates.

While our services are running differently and our resources may be stretched, we are still here to help and we continue to:

• Offer information and advice aiming to be a reliable, easy-to-understand source of advice for all older people, their friends, family and carers. Telephone 0121 704 7840 for this service.
• Offer telephone befriending and welfare calls to older people who live on their own or might be particularly vulnerable. Telephone 0121 704 7846 for information about this service.
• Provide a stringently risk assessed Home Support service. Call 0121 704 7848 for information.
• Run virtual PSI (gentle exercise) classes through booklets, videos and weekly phone calls. Telephone 0121 704 7845 for information.
• Work with older people who are struggling to go shopping for themselves on an individual basis. Call 0121 704 7840 if you or an older person you know needs support.
