Why do we value old objects over old people? Age UK is here to change how we age. Make change happen
Here's how, with your support, Age UK is supporting older people through the cost of living crisis.
We're passionate that everyone should have the opportunity to make the most of later life. Policy and Research is an important part of Age UK’s work because it has the power to transform older people's lives for the better.
We seek to influence decision makers by conducting social and economic analysis, developing public policy proposals and shaping policy agendas in a wide range of areas.
