The charity addresses loneliness and social isolation by providing safe, welcoming spaces where people can build friendships, share meals, and participate in meaningful activities.

The help at home service offers practical support with daily tasks such as cleaning, shopping and companionship, enabling individuals to remain in their own homes.

Family carers also benefit from tailored day care services, including specialist support for those caring for loved ones with dementia.

The centres offer professional foot care delivered by qualified foot health practitioners to help maintain mobility and comfort.

Founded in 1985, Age Concern Hampshire delivers support through care and wellbeing centres, foot care clinics, hospital-to-home services, and more.
