Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. On October 2nd, I will be taking part in the 2022 Cardiff Half Marathon! This will be a real challenge and also is a way for me to support older people living in our communities. 

Sadly too many experience loneliness with only the television for company. Many can go through days without human contact and the pandemic has only made this more challenging. Age Connects can offer a lifeline. The support or donations you give will only be used locally to provide services for older people in the local area.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Age Connects Cardiff and Vale will receive your money faster, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 25% in tax (an extra 25p for every £1 you give) will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Please make a donation and sponsor me online to help me raise funds for Age Connects Cardiff and the Vale. 

Many thanks, Alan

About the charity

It’s a sad reality that older people are particularly vulnerable to social isolation or loneliness owing to loss of friends and family, mobility or income. It can be a terrible and frightening experience to see no-one for days on end. Every one of us is getting older, and regardless of circumstance it is something that we will all have to contend with. Hopefully, most people have the benefit of friends and family to help them along life’s journey. Sadly, many older people living in Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan do not have this security and are all alone facing the uncertainty that old age can often bring. They may be recovering from illness or bereavement, struggling to cope financially or cope in any one or a dozen of ways. At Age Connects Cardiff and the Vale they find practical help and advice and people who care about the challenges they face. Our local charity makes a huge difference to the lives of so many older people who have nowhere else to turn and often are vulnerable, isolated and in poverty.
