There has never been a more important time to join the Age UK fundraising team. Against a backdrop of a broken social care system and millions already turning to Age UK for help, older people are amongst those hardest hit by the pandemic. Calls to our trusted Age UK Advice Line have doubled and requests for Telephone Friendship Service have trebled.
