Age UK Somerset offers a free and confidential information and advice service for older people, their families and carers.

Age UK Somerset provides information and advice on a wide range of issues. We’ll provide you with the facts and you can make choices and decisions knowing you have reliable information.


What we can offer you:

  • We will give you information that is accurate and up-to-date
  • We can explain the choices you have.
  • We will help you decide what to do, but it is your choice.
  • If we can’t help, we will point you in the right direction.
