"I joined with low confidence and worsening health. Now, I’m more active, positive, and socially connected. Action For Elders focuses on what we can do—it’s helped me build resilience and take control of my wellbeing in later life."
Our beneficiaries are older people aged 50+, particularly those facing isolation, poor health, or financial hardship. We focus on those most at risk, including individuals who are marginalised, living alone, or without access to formal support.
Enhance wellbeing – Support older people to improve their physical and mental health through tailored, evidence-based programmes like Balanced Lives.
Combat loneliness – Reduce isolation by creating safe, inclusive spaces where older adults can build meaningful social connections
Empower resilience – Help individuals regain confidence, independence, and control over their lives by focusing on their strengths and personal goals.
Shift perceptions – Challenge ageism by promoting positive ageing through campaigns and education, encouraging society to value older people's contributions.
Strengthen communities – Work in partnership with local networks to deliver preventative, person-led services that reduce demand on overstretched health systems

"Being part of Action For Elders has helped me reconnect with my community and feel heard again. The sessions are shaped around what we need—not what others think we need. It’s people like me helping to shape support that truly works."
