Helping Older People in Hampshire Live and Age Well


Age Concern Hampshire’s Care and Wellbeing Centres are making a significant difference in the lives of older people by providing vital services that promote health, social connection, and independence.


Maintaining physical activity, mental engagement, and social connections becomes increasingly important as we age, playing a key role in supporting overall health and wellbeing. Age Concern Hampshire’s day centres support this approach by offering a variety of stimulating activities, nutritious meals and a warm, welcoming environment designed to nurture both mind and body.


Loneliness and social isolation remain major challenges for many older people, especially those living alone. Age Concern Hampshire’s Care and Wellbeing Centres tackle this issue by creating safe spaces where people can build friendships, share meals, and take part in activities that enhance wellbeing, while also providing much-needed respite and reassurance for family carers through tailored day care services, including for those supporting loved ones living with conditions such as dementia.



“Our focus is on helping older people remain independent in their own homes for as long as possible,” said Hannah Park, Head of Operations at Age Concern Hampshire. “By offering tailored care and respite services, we not only support individuals but also ease the pressure on families and caregivers, improving quality of life for everyone involved.”
