@age_uk Thank you for sending that, but no one seems to be in the office there.

@age_uk Do you still have an office in #Oxfordshire ?

@Janekelly25 Hi Jane, I'm sorry to hear this. They take calls but sometimes experience very busy periods and aren't on socials. Their number 0345 450 1276 is operational between 8:30 am-4:30 pm, Monday-Friday. You can also email them on contactus@ageukoxfordshire.org.uk directly. Best wishes.

@age_uk Is it right that you no longer have an office in #Oxfordshire ? At your office in #Oxford no one answers the phone.

@age_uk There is an elderly couple who are very cold. They and their dog are sheltering at the Merrilands crescent Dagenham Asda in this awful cold weather, is there anything you can do to help them?

The Government's #WinterFuelPayment announcement makes this a good day for older people. Thank you to everyone who has supported our campaign. You spoke, they listened. Read our full statement here: bit.ly/3SHRW7T

@wcrpaul @ageuk Hello there, this is a question for our friendly advisers on the Age UK Information & Advice line. I'm afraid they can't reply via social media but you can reach them for free via phone, web chat, email, or letter: 0800 055 6112 - open 8am to 7pm daily ageuk.org.uk/contact-us/inf…

@ageuk @age_uk Has anyone found a UK bank or building society that offers Trustees' Accounts for a private Schedule 3A Will Trust - one that doesn't require introduction through a professional intermediary, nor impose a very long block time on withdrawals, nor is a London private bank with high fees...? I get the impression that many local financial institutions have been scared off by red tape, both HMRC and anti-laundering source of funds, making the task of bring a trustee very challenging... #CARER #EXECUTOR #WILL #TRUST #TRUSTEE #BANK

"No one at all should be left at home, alone on Christmas Day" Royle Family star Ricky Tomlinson tells @MrDanWalker what inspired him to get involved in a campaign against loneliness. @age_uk predicts 1.5 million pensioners could be spending Christmas alone this year.

Christmas is a time of year many of us get to spend quality time with our family and friends. But for many of the older generation, the festive season is a period of intense loneliness. According to Age UK, 1.5 million pensioners will be spending Christmas Day alone this year. @KNashTV has been hearing what that feels like.

Age UK has revealed that 1.5 million older people will eat dinner alone on Christmas Day 😔💔

@kateowbridge @dsprimed Thank you for your incredible support @kateowbridge. We're so pleased to hear how much you used to enjoy visiting Pam, and we're so sorry to hear of your loss💜

@dsprimed When I used to visit Pam, a lady I saw through the @age_uk befriending scheme, I used to love disappearing into “Pam world” for a few hours. All my rubbish had to wait. It did me as much good as it did her I always thought. She’s been gone nearly 5 years now. I visited her for 4.

Saturday drifts sideways as I've crossed my father’s threshold, The air swollen and unmoving, rooms murmuring old heat. Nothing settles yet the pace tilts, a scene half lit, half forgotten, holding its own quiet argument with time.

@laurennnn0607 We're so glad to hear this Lauren, thank you for volunteering! It really does make such a difference 💜

I’ve got my second friend to talk to through this now, Richard who’s a massive football fan so always loads to talk about. Would still highly recommend this to anyone who has a spare 30 mins to give!

'It's dehumanising and it doesn't really need to happen' Paul Farmer from Age UK spoke to #BBCBreakfast about their report which reveals 'heartbreaking' stories of how older people are suffering, spending hours in corridors and side-rooms in hospitals in England bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@YanHeCUL Thank you for your support! 💜🧶

I bought two bottles of smoothies this morning, each with a cute handmade hat, to support Age UK. What a creative and heartwarming idea!
