Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Contact the Elderly is the Element Six charity of the year. 

It's a national charity dedicated to tackling loneliness and social isolation amongst older people living in the United Kingdom. Their mission is to empower older people to make new social connections and break out of the cycle of social isolation.

3.6 million older people in the UK live alone, with two million of these aged 75 or older. 1.9 million older people have said they often feel ignored or invisible, and two fifths of all older people say that television is their main source of company. 

We have pledged our support to Contact the Elderly in 2019 to help them continue to add value to and change the lives of elderly people in the UK.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
