Age Concern New Zealand

Age Concern is the charity in your neighbourhood supporting older people, their friends and whānau. We provide the national coordination of services, contracts and programmes run through our local Age Concern network across 40 locations in NZ.

Understanding and caring is in Age Concern’s DNA. Dignity, wellbeing, equity, and respect for older people are our guiding lights.

Your donation will help us continue to provide national coordination of all our programmes including:

• Volunteer visiting service

• Elder Abuse and Neglect Prevention services

• Health Promotion programmes

There are approximately 750,000 New Zealanders aged 65 + and it is estimated that by 2034 this will increase to 1.2 million. We need to be prepared for this increase as the demand for our services will be huge.

We are active and vocal on relevant issues and work to ensure older people stay connected with their family, friends and community. Age Concern New Zealand has worked to promote the rights, wellbeing and quality of life of older people, koroua and kuia since 1948.

Please help support us to help increase the mental and physical wellbeing of our older Kiwis.
