The Mercer UK and Darwin Legal teams are holding a joint volunteering day walking the entire London borough of Hammersmith and Fulham carrying out a leaflet drop for Age UK Hammersmith and Fulham to help promote its services particuarly to those who have been isolated during the pandemic. 

We are also fundraising for the charity as part of the volunteering day. All donations to cheer on your colleagues in the Legal teams will help Age UK Hammersmith and Fulham continue to be there for older people. Helping them meet complex needs such as social housing to the simple things we all take for granted, like a friendly chat on the phone. 

Age UK Hammersmith and Fulham is a charity that works hard to deliver holistic services that improve the lives of older people in the borough. Addressing many of the common needs of older people from ill health, loneliness, and social isolation to care and support, poverty, and poor housing. Many of these needs have been made more urgent due to the pandemic and reaching out to those in isolation has also been made more difficult. 

The leaflet drop will help the charity to reach out to more older and isolate people in Hammersmith and Fulham so that they know of the services available to them. 

Each year, the charity helps more than 1,400 older people, and with so many local services yet to resume, that help has never been more needed. 

Your donation will be used to continue to provide services and activities all year round. Services that offer older people the opportunity to maintain their health and their social life. Together, we can help inform and engage them so that they can lead fuller lives, and preserve or increase the significance of their independence, their personality and confidence, and overall well-being. 

Please help us be there for older people.
