Independent Age Revenue and Competitors

Whatever happens as we get older, we all want to remain independent and live life on our own terms. That's why, as well as offering regular friendly contact and a strong campaigning voice, Independent Age provides clear, free and impartial advice on the issues that matter: care and support, money and benefits, health and mobility. A charity founded over 150 years ago, we're independent so you can be. We give free, confidential advice over the telephone for older people, their families and carers on issues such as getting help at home, adaptations, care assessments, paying for care, staying in touch with other people and welfare benefits. Call our team of experts on 0800 319 6789, Monday to Friday, 8am-8pm, and Saturday to Sunday, 9am-5pm, or email your query to advice@independentage.org We also produce free guides and factsheets which are full of information to help you boost your income, find the care you need, remain independent, choose the right place to live, stay connected with others, and more. Order our guides and factsheets at www.independentage.org, or call us on 0800 319 6789. With the help of our committed volunteers, we provide friendship services to relieve loneliness and isolation. These are delivered through phone calls, visits, telephone discussion groups and more, enabling older people to feel more connected to their local community. We believe older people are entitled to a fair deal. We use the knowledge and insight gained from our frontline services to challenge poor care and campaign for a fair deal for older people — a reasonable standard of living, fair access to information and an opportunity to contribute to their communities.
