Age UK Bristol Celebrates 30 Years of Supporting Older People

Age UK Bristol is thrilled to announce the launch of its 30th Birthday campaign, a special initiative aimed at raising £30,000 to mark three decades of providing vital support and services to older people in the city. We are actively changing the way we age in Bristol.

Since its establishment in 1994, Age UK Bristol has been a beacon of hope for countless older individuals, offering a range of essential services including befriending, Day Centre, dementia support, and advice on health, housing, and finances. The organisation's dedicated team of staff and volunteers has worked tirelessly to ensure that older people can live fulfilling and independent lives.

"We are incredibly proud of the work we have done over the past 30 years to support older people in Bristol," said Kay Libby, Chief Executive of Age UK Bristol. "Our services have helped to improve the quality of life for thousands of individuals, and we are committed to continuing this important work for many years to come."

The 30th Birthday campaign will run throughout the year and will feature a variety of fundraising activities, launching with the fundraising Fire Walk on the 12th October. We plan to have a wide range of activities over the next year. The funds raised will be used to support Age UK Bristol's core services and to develop new initiatives that meet the changing needs of older people.

"We are calling on the community to come together and help us celebrate our 30th birthday by supporting our fundraising campaign," said Mina Malpass, Chair of Age UK Bristol. "Every donation, no matter how small, will make a significant difference to the lives of older people in Bristol."
