We are very pleased to announce that Raeside Chisholm have adopted Age Scotland as our Charity of the year.
Age Scotland is the new force resulting from the coming together in 2009 of Age Concern Scotland and Help the Aged in Scotland. Through its online presence, telephone helpline and numerous factsheets, Age Scotland provides an invaluable information service for anyone concerned about their health and wellbeing as they get older, or that of their parents and other older relatives and friends.
As well as leading campaigns addressing issues of importance to those in later life, Age Scotland also helps local community groups and individuals to provide local services where these are needed.
This ties in with the ethos behind our Special Services for the Elderly. We hope to develop close ties with Age Scotland and want to ensure that our clients are made aware of what Age Scotland can do for them.
More information about the work of Age Scotland can be found on its website http://www.ageuk.org.uk/scotland/
