Age UK - Citywide Later Life Planning and Support Service
Age UK Birmingham provides services and support to older people (over 50) and their carers living in the city of Birmingham. Our mission statement is to promote the wellbeing of older people across Birmingham. To achieve this we provide information and advice, dementia support and activities to
encourage social engagement.
We provide an advice and support on a broad range of issues. We assist with welfare benefits (benefit checks, completing application forms), housing options, transport options, later life planning (wills and LPAs), bereavement
support.
If the service cannot assist, we can put people in touch with services that can support them
We also offer volunteering opportunities within the service to citizens and students.
We offer a menu of awareness raising talks to local community groups which will promote self-care, health awareness
and encouraging healthy lifestyles. The service is for people aged 50 and over and their carers who live in Birmingham. The service is citywide. In addition to telephone advice, locations are being identified to develop outreach drop in sessions.
The service can be accessed through a self-referral or referral by family and
friends/professionals.
