London Marathon 2019 Team Independent Age
Organised by Independent AgeOn 28th April 2019, Independent Age runners are taking on the world's greatest marathon. The London Marathon.
Story
Team Independent Age is running 26.2 miles to fight for older people in the UK.
More than 1 million older people say they are often or always lonely. As well as feeling cut off from friends and family, it can mean that when difficulties arise, they feel they have no one to turn to.
Your support can make such a difference for an older person, because thanks to our fundraisers, we can provide regular visits and telephone calls from one of our caring volunteers. We can also help with worries they might be facing whether they're about finances, mobility, or other day-to-day issues, so they don't have to cope with difficulties alone.
Together we can make the UK the best place to grow old in.
