The aim of Age Concern Oldham is to help make later life a more fulfilling experience for older people. <br />
<br />
Age Concern Oldham is a local autonomous charity and relies on diverse income streams. We work in partnership with the local authority and NHS Oldham delivering services under contract agreements. More than 36% of what we spend providing services for local people is raised by ourselves from our charity shops and trading outlets selling insurance and community equipment. <br />
<br />
Working together, our staff initiate fresh, interesting ways to secure health and independence for local older people helping maintain their involvement in the wider community. We manage a full range of services that benefit older people either directly or through the generation of funds.<br />
