A campaign has been launched to raise money to help support elderly people in the community.

Age Concern Hampshire has unveiled its new festive campaign, Let's Spread Cheer into the New Year, to help raise funds for 2025 and beyond.

The campaign aims to gather support from the public and corporate partners to ensure the continuation of the charity’s services, which provide essential help to older people and their families.

The funds raised will be used to carry on these services, spreading joy to even more elderly people in the coming year.

The campaign will highlight the charity's impact over the past year, showcasing how its services have helped older people feel supported, valued and connected.

The charity hopes the campaign will demonstrate the importance of its work, especially during the festive period when many older people can feel particularly isolated.
