We co-deliver Ageing Well Southwark, a new borough-wide service which aims to inform and support residents over the age of 60 and their carers, by helping them discover and access a range of available community services.

We are working in partnership with Southwark Council to deliver this service, as well as our fellow members of COPSINS (Consortium of Older People's Services in Southwark), comprising of Age UK Lewisham and Southwark, Blackfriars Settlement, Southwark Carers, Southwark Pensioners Centre and Time and Talents.

As part of Ageing Well Southwark, we support Southwark residents over the age 60 or living with a diagnosis of dementia, and their unpaid carers, with our new Information and Support service.

We can help with financial, practical, health and social isolation issues such as:

• Getting online
• IT support with tablets & mobiles
• Form filling
• Benefits check
• Toenail cutting (fee payable)
• Finding a befriender
• Joining a social group
• Researching activity & exercise groups
• Support for people living with dementia & their carers
• Finding local services & access to Age UK’s Handyperson service
