Christmas is meant to be a time of joy and light. But imagine having nobody to pull a cracker with. No one to exchange a gift and share a hug with. Not a single soul to wish you a Merry Christmas.

For many older people, talking to Age UK Exeter really is their only bright spot during this difficult time of year. Your vital gift today could help make sure that no one has no one this Christmas.

Every donation counts!

Your donation could help make sure our vital services are there for older people in Exeter in their darkest hours.

Offer more support for carers while their loved ones are cared for safely

Offer transport to people who would struggle to get to our groups.

Investigate making our services available in the West of the City again

Run I.T classes and adult learning opportunities

Develop intergenerational opportunities.

Help older people and their families plan for the future.
