Joggers? Jog on! We're getting overdressed for older people who desperately need our help.

Tired of trackie bottoms? Bored with bed-head? If you’re missing those ‘dress to impress’ moments, it's time to take a stand. 

At Age UK, we’re asking you to #overdress to raise vital funds to support our work during the coronavirus crisis. So pack in the PJs, don your finest threads for a day and challenge your friends to do the same!  

Here’s how it works: 

  1. Get overdressed in your outfit of choice. Sequins, silk, or just your favourite skinny jeans – if it makes you feel like you look a million bucks, wear it!
  2. Snap a selfie in your overdressed outfit and share it on social with the hashtag #Overdress and tag us @age_uk. Bonus points for wearing your outfit in an unexpected context!  
  3. Tag your style squad and nominate them to get overdressed too. 
  4. Text DRESS to 70800 to donate £5 to Age UK.* 

#Overdress and make a difference

For every overdressed outfit and donation made, our frontline workers and volunteers can go over and above for older people who desperately need our support during the coronavirus crisis. 

Whether it’s delivering essential food supplies or calling an isolated older person for a friendly chat on the phone, we refuse to let older people struggle alone at this time.
