Who we are
Age UK Bristol works to improve the lives of older people in Bristol through a range of different services.
At Age UK Bristol, we want to change the way we age. We aim to keep people aged 55+ well and active, encouraging Bristol to be an Age Friendly city. We do this in 3 ways - through providing practical help and supporting people’s emotional and physical wellbeing in a range of ways depending on their needs. In addition, we want to prevent people from needing our help wherever possible. We do this in our strategic work, where we aim to create the conditions for older adults to remain healthy and independent.
Our goals
All of the work we do at Age UK Bristol aims to meet our strategic aims and objectives:
- To provide, commission or support others to deliver a range of quality services and initiatives that address those issues which are important to older people in Bristol.
- To reduce isolation and promote an independent lifestyle for older people in Bristol.
- To promote a positive view of the contribution that older people make to society.
- To help older people in Bristol to remain living in their own homes for as long as they wish to do so.
- To campaign to improve services locally.
- To ensure that Age UK Bristol is financially strong and well run.
