Age UK London
Age UK London is the regional campaigning charity working closely with all the London borough Age UK's for an age-friendly London. Our mission is to campaign for specific change to improve the lives of older Londoners and ensure that their experiences, needs and contributions are heard and taken into account by decision makers. We do this through our core campaigns, looking to secure specific, sustainable changes to the policies & practices of decision makers to improve the lives of older Londoners and make London an age-friendly city. Shaping the agenda, by ensuring the experiences, needs and contributions of older Londoners are heard by decision makers and form part of the public discourse on the future of London. Supporting the London network of local Age UKs. An age-friendly city relies on both campaigning and direct service provision, so we support the network of local Age UKs in London who deliver vital front-line services.
The principles that underpin all our work: We champion the contribution older Londoners make to the city. We put older Londoners’ views, experiences and well being at the heart of what we do. We consider diversity and inclusion in all aspects of our work and seek to challenge the additional impact of ageism alongside other inequalities. We base our decisions on evidence not assumptions. We work with others who share these principles.
