As people age, they are often let down by the systems in place to support them. Whether they struggle to manage multiple medications, live with undiagnosed conditions, or don’t receive treatment when they need it, older people and their families continually miss out on essential support when they need it most.

At Independent Age we campaign to ensure that the systems that people rely on as they grow older are supportive and enabling so that no-one feels ignored, isolated and marginalized.

They will deliver an exceptional supporter experience for current and prospective legacy supporters with a focus on securing strategic long term support by building a robust, sustainable pipeline of legacy pledges.
