Story

"Out in the Forest stood such a lovely Fir Tree..."

Our latest immersive audio production tells the story of a Fir Tree who dreams of seeing the world, until he is chosen one Christmas, and the world isn't quite what he'd dreamed. 

To honour our dear Fir Tree, and all those who have ever felt isolated, overlooked, or forgotten, we have chosen to raise some much-needed funds this holiday season. 'The Fir Tree' is available now to listen on our website, free of charge; in exchange, please consider offering a donation to Age UK.

Most people will feel lonely at some point in their lives. It’s a deeply personal experience that - in most cases - will thankfully pass. Sadly, 2.65m older people feel they have no one to turn to for help and around 3.9m older people consider TV to be their main form of company. By donating, you can help Age UK to continue providing vital services that offer companionship, advice and support for older people facing later life alone. 

More than 850,000 older people could be spending this Christmas alone. 

Please help us and AgeUK be there for them. Thank you!

With love, the AT Family
