About us
Who we are
Age UK Leicester Shire & Rutland is an independent local charity with a national name. We work in the local community to help older people live happier, active, fulfilled and socially-engaged lives in communities around the City, County and Rutland.
The organisation offers a wide range of services that are designed to enable older people and their carers to live as independently as possible and enjoy a good quality of life.
Our culture and values
Our organisation is committed to the welfare of older people, ensuring they maintain their dignity and recognise their value as individuals. We believe that dignity, privacy, and independence can be preserved by providing opportunities for older people to develop new skills and knowledge, form and continue friendships and to have their views listened to, accepted, and made known. Our main aim is to develop sufficient and relevant services that reflect the needs and wishes of older people living in the city and county parts of Leicestershire & Rutland. We also support all older people to retain their independence by developing person -centred services that reflect their needs. Our key strengths are responding to people's needs from the time they retire through to the latter stages of their life and providing trusted, high -quality services, enabling people to move through the different phases of older age with support and dignity.
