Actor Miriam Margolyes OBE is supporting Age UK Lambeth’s Christmas Campaign “No one should have no one.”
The charity is appealing for support to help it provide Christmas Dinner for the most isolated older people.
Volunteers will be cooking turkey and all the trimmings and providing dinner gifts and entertainment for 40 older people at their community hub Vida’s. A further 20 meals will be provided for those who prefer to be at home.
You can donate any amount on line here or by texting AUKL17 £4 to 70070 to donate £4.
The charity says that over half a million older people across the UK will spend Christmas Day alone.
To find out more email. If you would like to volunteer please contact bev@ageuklambeth.org
Age UK Lambeth says: “The money raised from the campaign will be also used for a Christmas party for our clients and for MySocial. MySocial is our service providing a calendar of fun events all year round for older people to meet new friends, stay active and enjoy their lives.”
