We can help ensure that no older person has to live in poverty, social isolation and difficulty.

Counsel and Care is the national charity working with older people, their families and carers to get the best care and support. We provide personalised, in-depth advice and information, which informs our research and campaigning work. We support people through our Advice Line, through our website, in our responses to emails and letters, our detailed factsheets and guides, and our single needs grants programme. Enquirers are helped until their issues are resolved. We can advise on a range of community care issues, including finding and paying for care, welfare benefits, and hospital discharge. We can help older people whether they are in a care home, in sheltered housing, or in their original home
