Our services
While our buildings may be closed and our resources may be stretched we are still here to help and we continue to:
- Offer information 0808 196 2424, aiming to be a reliable, easy-to-understand source of advice for all older people, their friends, family and carers.
- Offer Telephone Befriending calls for older people who may be especially isolated during these times
- Provide a Meals+ service delivered to the door for older people living in their own home
Please check the individual services pages for details on their availability and how to access them.
Later life can be an active and fulfilling experience. Age UK Wiltshire is here to help achieve that and to provide support to people if and when they need it.
It may be a bit of information and advice or practical support at a time of real life crisis.
